woke up after my arrest
my gentle subconscious
urging me to alter my path?
we wait
virgin spring launch
water bottles, broasted chicken
let puppy steer the boat?
cashew chicken, colorful veggies & water chestnuts, too – that satisfying crunch
Thai take-out for lunch
one’s a zero, the other a three
our future, for dessert
takes some getting used to
loud toaster, fridge & TV
the crinkle of paper towels
my brand-new hearing aids
fresh from the oven
my own tried & true
banana bread, now
with a cranberry twist
NOTE: I’ve used this same recipe since the mid-80s. Today, I decided to shake things up a (tiny!) bit. 🙂
we might get more
two days of drizzle
lightly falling
essence from heaven
hot beverage
post-breakfast brew
sweet or savory?
one of these is always right!
morning readings
others’ poetry
soothing balm
a boon to the heart

My poem indelicate flower was published today by Invisible City, which is the University of San Francisco MFA in Creative Writing program’s online literary journal.
I apologize in advance ‘for language’ – I hope I don’t offend anyone!
watchful
weather app leaves no doubt
wind and rain headed this way
walk will have to wait ’til later
