Three old cats are a

bit too many, but

three’s much better than

not having any.

May blessings smother you today

like softly falling snow.

May you step quick and sure and light,

secure where e’er you go.

Look back upon this day in peace

and let it slip away.

Look forward to tomorrow ‘cause

‘twill be a brand new day.

Look forward to the things you’ll do

to reach your heart’s desire.

Tomorrow, too, will do its best

to challenge and inspire.

Climb up here upon my lap.

I’ll sing to you a song.

Lay your body on my chest

so you can hum along.

Pull your blanket round your ears

and cover up your head.

And when you close your sleepy eyes,

I’ll tuck you in your bed.

Temps Plunge!

Border Crisis!

The world’s uncertain.

I can see that it’s

a risky time for me.

I’ll stay inside.

Shut all my doors.

I’ll hustle through my

household chores.

I’ll get some coffee,

 then I’ll see

a funny rerun on TV.

Ev’ry morn when I arise

I get another chance

to be the best that I can be.

What a fortunate circumstance!!!

My winter garden’s droopy,

limpy, squishy, cold and wet.

But down beneath it’s shaping up

to make the best Spring yet!

They say a blizzard’s coming in.

‘Twill hit most ev’ry state.

For some: an inconvenience.

For some: ‘twill devastate.

They say we all should Quick!  Get ready!

I’ve done my part!

I’m holding steady!

I’ve got an ice axe standing by with

bottled Starbucks in good supply.

The Uvalde children haunt me.

Their young deaths:  now, Yesterday.

Other killings take the forefront.

Other fam’lies mourn and pray.

Here’s a thought to help you out

If you get bored today.

Prop your feet up.

Close your eyes.

And sleep it all away.
