A little obsessed

I keep coming to
post like a lover checking
for text messages.

Meditative mind

Silence erases
thoughts and stress like dry markers
wiped clean from white boards.

Starving writer

I really should start
dinner. But husband’s gone, so
I’ll just blog and starve.

Black Friday

Kmart opens at
4am. Outlet mall at
midnight. Who needs sleep?

Thanksgiving – after dinner

Post-tryptophan, we
watch Forrest Gump and digest
the day’s memories.

Thanksgiving – no time for diets

Don’t count calories.
Savor silken pumpkin, tart
cranberries. Taste joy.

Thanksgiving baking

Tempting smells – so strong
they nearly satiate the
appetite – drift by.

Description

We are all in search
of the quote that defines us.
Self in sentence form.

Yearning

Why this ache, an itch
no hand can scratch, a splinter
no tweezer can pull?

Comfort

Times like these, a hot
cup of tea, a soft blanket
is all that’s needed.
