The Breakfast Ritual

Early morning sun
a memory plucked from 1991
calls from a Collared Dove
gas sizzled bacon and burnt toast
soap lathered and whisker scraped
the passage of tea upstairs
I lovingly recall
the breakfast ritual

This sounds like a peaceful ritual.  Lovely writing as usual. Enjoyed.

I have a very similar recollection, Marshalzu.  Food may have been a little different but the nostalgia isn't.  Enjoyable read.
