perverse pleasure
of an autumn shower —
may our rain gauges
quickly runneth over
Festival of Leaves: A Lovely Autumn Challenge
a word
so dope
groovy, cinema
& cool
bee’s knees
cat’s meow
sick, stellar
awesome & wow
eons of ways
to say just how much
I’m really digging
this fantabulous
October day
Uffda
SO tired and weary and distressed by the utter chaos, hatred, pettiness, poison, misinformation, un-American-ness and division of this regime.
Sorry.
Just HAD to vent…
out our sunroom window @ 6:50 a.m.
sheath of fog
mists Lake Colchester —
terraced hills,
barely discernible
in the just beyond
Wordless Wednesday
Super Puppy: All Bark, No Bite
Coco protects Mommy
he scares the bad guys away
so Mommy can drink her tea
in peace, so she can quietly journal
and read her poetry
in the soothing sunrays of an October morning.
rushing toward a parent’s need
curdled milk, ropey eggs
food expiry dates, a year in arrears
demented brains, atrophied limbs
vision, like minds, cloudy and blurred
this house no longer holds
change is required
difficult but necessary
little tragedies
taking place
nearly every day
Silent Sunday
appreciation: a rambling
early a.m.
quiet in the darkness
wind starts
to percolate
another breezy one in store
football on the TV
husband & I
tag-team a Halloween
jigsaw puzzle
puppy in submissive mode
rub my belly, please!
leftover Thai for lunch
fresh-baked Snickerdoodles,
sweet afterthought
it’s how the day goes
sometimes
nothing much
but actually, there’s
a whole lotta there,
there, too
it’s called love
and comfort,
sunshine
and warmth,
gratitude
that pretty much
encompasses
everything,
no questions
asked
