On days like these I watch the day slide between washer loads and clothing folds daydreaming of something more in second chances erotic glances perhaps over the produce aisle? adding tuna to grocery lists and feeding the fish I can’t help but be bored with Mr. Clean and the telephone's ringing my shinbone's stinging from the table I hit running to get the phone sorry wrong number and now I lumber cuz my leg’s throbbing the dogs are bobbing they want to go outside I open the door stumble some more as the cat skids inside and tries to hide but the chase is on round the chair 3 tails and lot's of hair yellin, "get the heck out!" the colds getting in! they whack my shin..again sliding across the floor to scurry out the door dogs howling cat’s a hissing and I know I’m missing something…. I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |

Great fun, Breathe~, I needed a laugh. Best said fast, to keep up with the "cast". |

Love the poem.. it has catchy opening lines and keeps you reading. Easy to relate to as it sound like one of my days with the washer going all the time and the critters always with their great timing. |

lol! this sounds like my house. Here's a little advice... forget the calgon, go for the good stuff. Try something dreamy from Victoria's Secret. You'll love yourself for it. I think you deserve it! Love your poem, Deb |

Blooming Rose...didn't mean to leave you out...you must have popped in while I was responding...*g*...It's like this all day at work...just crazy comotion all the time...then I get to come home to the same thing... I think that is a good idea...lock the bedroom door...and lounge for the rest of the evening in something silky... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |
