Morning Proclamation from HRH.
Remember the marshmallows from last week? They were actually created for this brownie recipe. Um-hm!
Such richness! To be able to check out all these books and movies for free....and please don't natter on about municipal bonds and tax levy blah-blah. I love my public libraries.
WORK, SOMETIMES
ReplyDeleteI was sad all day, and why not. There I was, books piled
on both sides of the table, paper stacked up, words
falling off my tongue.
The robins had been a long time singing, and now it
was beginning to rain.
What are we sure of? Happiness isn’t a town on a map,
or an early arrival, or a job well done, but good work
ongoing. Which is not likely to be the trifling around
with a poem.
Then it began raining hard, and the flowers in the yard
were full of lively fragrance.
You have had days like this, no doubt. And wasn’t it
wonderful, finally, to leave the room? Ah, what a
moment!
As for myself, I swung the door open. And there was
the wordless, singing world. And I ran for my life.
