Right now the kitchen is a mess.
You know why I don’t care?
Because I love my family best
and we have food to share.
What About Ourselves
We make our homes beautiful
to sell them.
And what about ourselves?
Made It Happen
Thank you for coming and making me stick with it to the end.
Maybe I did it, but without you it wouldn’t have happened.
Come anytime, yes, please come again.
Surprise
When you wake up in the morning with a list of things to do,
and a sleepy-headed husband says that there’s a gift for you,
and that it’s bigger than a breadbox and that it is upstairs,
and you look but cannot find an item waiting anywhere,
but you go outside to check if he forgot it in the car,
and you find a different car where you thought that you had parked…
well then jump up and down and turn around and quick run back inside
and run to the guest room and find your sleeping sister! That’s a great surprise!
Procrastinator
There are some things on your list that you should just do “later.”
And by the time you get to them, they’ll be unnecessary.
And that’s one of the benefits of being a procrastinator.
It’s amazing what can happen while you tarry.
Hollow
I’ll hide you in my bosom
like an owl in a hollow,
and you will find it full and warm
with sustenance to swallow.
Feast Tonight
If the food in the freezer flooded into the fridge
so the fridge food fled to the countertop,
let itself by diced and chopped,
then chose the frying pan over the fire,
there’d be a feast tonight.
