As sunrise swallows the night, and daylight’s limbs stretch the mind in rhythmic sweep over the body, my restless soul senses the barometer is falling, once again; and with its fall the heart beat is altered inexorably and I am momentarily determined to move the beat forward through rain, sleet and snow, climb the mountain of monotony I’ve been ignoring for days. My personal fuel cells crave replenishing, and the cupboard is bare. Outside, the air is saturated, the clouds hang too low to the ground, and the ache in these mature bones keeps me hovering near the heater. There is always tomorrow. Or is there? |

In some households throughout time, bare cupboards use to cover stashes of necessities .... food, water, wealth ... ... I would say behind yours is endless soul. (sorry ... had to take a peek!) this is a keeper! *S |

Hi Kacy, It's good to see you here....... and yep, we do have the hope of tomorrow...as long as there's breath, anyway.  Hugs Ethel |

"As sunrise swallows the night, and daylight’s limbs stretch the mind in rhythmic sweep over the body" this great opening was a beautiful ante-chamber for a lovely verse...enjoyed |
