Itchy Kitty

-thupthupthupthup-
In the deep of night I recognize
The unique sound of
A cat scratching behind its ear.

Light On The Eye

Highlights reflected off plastic bags
Flicker black and turquoise mid-blink.

Blank Pages Required

Filled to the brim with
My loves, sorrows, and joys of all sizes.
Soon I shall need a new journal.


----
I've decided I'm going to start slowing down how often I post to this blog, since the July River of Stones has been over for awhile, and I've been spacing on posting anyway. :) Now it will be just every other day, I think.

Peaches

Pink-gold outer fuzz...
tender yellow inner sweetness...
But the whole fruit is freezing.

Another Tumblebee!

Surprise!
That foxglove blossom was not
As attached as the bee hoped.

Time to Grow

Speak, books of self-knowledge
Catalyze my realization's dawn:
What I must become, how I must be
To release the magic of me.

Living Stuffy

His silky gray form flops on my arm
He strikes up a glorious purr
Lays his soft face against my cheek
Allowing me to cuddle him stuffy animal style.

Fabric Fun

No skilled seamstress am I,
but sewing little belt pouches and hats
provides delight.

A Powerful Scent

Overly fragrant, our new
Alabaster-like sandalwood candle
Awaits the special sabbath times
In an unregarded nook.

We Shall Return

Mary Lou's homemade ice cream has spoiled us!
Leaving no throat gunk, no super sweet overload,
Only delicious memory.
We shall return.

Affirmation

"I would never have thought to pick that,
but it looks so cute on you!"
"I really hope you get that hat.
I saw you trying it on!"
Prized comments from strangers while clothes shopping.

New to Kilts

Walking along, he twists, turning sharply
Watching, curious, as his new tartan garment swishes.
His odd frown says, "Er... um..." and "... Fascinating...!
...Er."

All girls know how swishy skirts feel.
Seeing a young man experience it for the first time is
Priceless.
Newbie!

Bento

Rising early to put together special food, in special boxes, in fanciful, cute ways to enjoy consuming as a picnic later on, is a rejuvenating experience.

Japanese emoticons
Invoke digital joy
Spreading text delight
To the world.

Tomes

I desire the ability to bind books,
With every page feeling special and earthy
Every cover full of texture and secrets.
All volumes ought to be art
In their core of existence.
