Tightening

Sitting at the desk
neck and back tightening up
during paperwork

Pursuing Peace

zoning the bedroom
carving out a quiet space
to hear the silence

In My Bones...

Past tired-
trying to find the energy
to do the chores

the calm

between two jobs
waiting for all heck to break
on either front

plodding along

mission for the year
sagging under under the strain
of exhaustion

Forehausted...

end of brutal week
hanging on long enough
to crawl into bed

The hidden name tag...

Once again-

boss enlarging to do list

"I'll be happy to"

Songs in the Night

evening lullaby
sixty cycle hum
and purring cat

Sukoshi Tsutsu..

hurt neck and back
walking a little slower
less cleaning gets done

Holiday

monday holiday
filled with work and chores
and a good book

Stalled Project

basement cleaning job
slowed due to back troubles
end date plus two weeks

Love Day

Annual Love Day-
enjoying calls to family
and good health report

Soreness

After two accidents
knowing old bones don't mend fast
slower steps to car

Shocked

Friend came for visit
bearing very nice gifts
and a great smile

Quiet Weekend

End of hard week-
excited to go hang with friends
and eat some great food

Next

This month's house project
blasting through the basement
chucking out the past

At the Office

end of the work day
wanting a nice steak dinner
and a long nice bath

The Answer Man

once again-
boss asks for information
and I furnish it

In the Wind

Change is on the wind-
Can taste new chapter in life
needing the energy

Thank you Jesus

End of the month-
house looks like people live there
still standing at work
