After Being Away



I am happy to be home, to
  • my mound of comfy pillows in their Egyptian cotton cases
  • my silver long-stemmed rose, weighting pages
  • my easy Indian cookbook, awaiting
  • a cup or two of white lavender tea in my cup painted with Italian lemons
  • the books for my “slow writing” course
  • the orchard of young fruit trees ankle-deep in verdant grasses
  • the idea of smoked salmon for tacos (brought back from northwest smokehouses)
  • a long, contemplative Sunday ahead
  • the possibilities of the farmers’ market
  • the possibility of jam and croissants
  • the choice of walking at Shoreline or just reading all day

And above all, to

time of my own!!!
