This morning began with an unexpected gift
Of time, of peace,
Of a slackened pace.
And those two hours somehow stretched
Encompassing the day,
With breaths
And “Hello, how are you?”s.
Yet in spite of fewer hours
There was magically more time,
More readers,
More dinner and dessert…
And tomorrow’s lunch-making.
More lesson reading,
Unit writing,
College alumni report writing
…and somehow, still more time
For book mail, and a neglected blog
A gingerbread slice of life with a dollop of cream.
What a treat!
I’ve been writing a lot…just not my blog…or my book.
