Sunday Scrub

In with the new

Out with the old

Goodbye old desk

So long last week’s

Dirty bowls

& crunchy socks

With a

Sunday scrub

& valiant vacuum

the world is clean again

For a day

~

Despite my slothful start to the day

I did get a few things done today

including a late addition

to Monkey Man's

Sunday 160

-15C

Too cold for man or beast!

and that is my six words

for a too cold 

Saturday

(that is 5F for my

American 

friends

Brr!)

I am ...

I am writer.

I am Dark Chocolate Truffles with Raspberry Center.

I am poet.

I am Mother.

Also

failing housewife,

barely passable chef,

inept picture hanger,

compassionate friend,

Now student for a spell.

Hear me drum.

Watch me stretch and groan

on the yoga mat.

But above all

Feel

My heart

poured into my words

In these long, dark days of January

the world spins slower

more pointedly

facing us in
