How I love the small
pleasures of a weekend—
. roasting peppers,
to marinate
. making tapenade
with orange peel and mint from my new mint plant
. wrapping gifts
with complementary green and purple ribbons
. working on my
Prospero poem to finish the collection
. listening to a
violin concerto by a forgotten composer
. watching peonies
open in my majolica pitcher
. the illusion of
abundant time
. putting on my Shakespeare Santa Cruz sweatshirt against the welcome evening chill
. putting on my Shakespeare Santa Cruz sweatshirt against the welcome evening chill
