Today I’m snowbound.
I just can’t go.
My world hit “pause”
with the winter snow.
Rainbow
I caught a Rainbow in my hand.
It didn’t want to stay.
It flashed its colors, fresh and bright,
and then it slipped away.
Winter Storm
The quiet snow fell through the night.
I woke up to a world that’s white.
The snow keeps sifting, falling down….
…still and quiet….all around.
11 Percent Vaccinated
More people are getting the COVID vaccine.
The numbers are inching higher.
With each percentage point we reach,
life feels just a little less dire.
“Sidetrack”
My middle name is “Sidetrack”
and I just can’t understand
why I cannot keep my focus
on the task that lies at hand.
I cannot stay attentive
to a single task I do.
I guess I’ve fallen victim
to the COVID Mental Flu.
Rubatino Trucks
Ed Rubatino’s trucks are out…
flexing mechanical muscle.
I won’t go for my walk today.
I’ve given up the tussle.
Lullaby
A lullaby is in the air.
It’s gentle notes surround me.
The lilt of a quiet lullaby
brings happiness around me.
…Bloom…
…don’t have to fly away to foreign lands
or seek for Lands Enchanted….
I can flourish in my home and yard
and bloom where I am planted….
My Second Vaccine
I’m starting to dream
of my second vaccine
and a possible end to despair.
The first thing I”ll do
I can sure promise you
is take care of my Pirate-y Hair!
Winter Storm Warning
There’s a Winter Storm Warning in effect.
It’s shivering cold outside.
If it gets any colder—
Well, what the heck!
I’ll jump neath my covers and hide!
