Uncarpeted fields and fear of change I remember those feeders Yesterday’s coffee seemed stronger today Why should I make a fresh pot? The small oak tree in our back yard Holds onto its leaves Like a tedious housewife, now alone Hiding behind the smell of blood, no longer Who would refuse the free… “Pass go & collect $200.00's”? Truth is, morning’s first light is revelation Closing old scams into evaporating clouds Brutal with promise, asserting dream charms Art carries me into other areas of life Sliding deep down underneath my nails Painting a yellow sunshine, leaning over me Like a lover with desire in his eyes Predetermined anxiety, with employment Covering half my body with determination Transfixed on piercing my soul with considerable enthusiasm And forbidden undertones Leaning forward in the current of charted newness Like spring bulbs bursting through winter’s frozen ground Stocked with nature’s fertilizers…. Yes, this new Tuesday’s banqueting hall Leads me into a Starbuck’s café With wondrous books exploding words on silk Stretching my name into a tattoo Big golden lettered aphorism I am loved….

sure Sue, but may I make a suggestion, ask for it made with soy bean vanilla milk...yummy...we're on a kick here at work, stopped and picked some up last evening, it is very good, and since it's flavored with vanilla, it's sweet and good on cereal, in coffee and a number of other things. Meet me at noon...hehehhehe |
