Spinach Soup

I made a pot of Spinach Soup.

I really have to say –

It’s a Gastronomic Blessing

on this raw December day.

300,000 Americans Dead

The size of the cities of Pittsburgh or St. Louis

Three times the population of my city, Everett

100 Americans die each hour.

I stop and bow my head.

100 Americans die each hour.

I weep for all the dead.

Christmas Star

The Christmas Star is coming.

It will shine in the evening sky.

It’s been about 800 years

since this event passed by.

The skies are wet and clouded

so we might not see it there.

But, we will know it’s happening—

precious, bright, and rare.

Daily Walk

I like to take my daily walk

and get out in the air.

I like to see the homes and lawns

and check whatever’s there.

I like to leave behind the thoughts

of things that grieve and tire us.

I like to have some time without

the politics and virus.

Corona Virus Transformation

My hair is growing down the back of my neck.

I feel like a Baboon.

I’m watching for other Suspicious Signs.

I hope this Virus ends soon.

Blessings

May blessings fall on you today

like snowflakes in a storm.

May they surround and comfort you

and keep you safe and warm.

Cookies

Today I’m baking cookies.

It’s a friendly thing to do.

You get the fun of mixing them,

and, then, you eat them, too.

Seahawks’ “12”

My Seahawks’ sign is lighted

and I’m hoping for the best.

What the Hawks will do in action

is most anybody’s guess.

Sometimes they win.  Sometimes they lose.

Their fate seems destined to confuse.

I hope they’ll play with skill and zest…

but, really, it is any one’s guess.

Each Day

Each day’s a time for happiness.

Each day’s a time to sow.

Each day’s a time for blessings.

Each day’s a time to grow.
