Mom and I had dueling eye doctor appointments, same time, different doctors. We drove home via Joann’s and I picked out some fabric for chair cushions, after we sat in the car and read today’s breaking news headlines. Then it was home to enjoy a wonderful dinner of Norwegian salmon and celebratory bloody marys.
Sat in the front yard
watching the daffodils blooming
rather than the newsit’s possible spring
will last a week or so
unless we get snowover there a grackle
is being scolded by a
chickadee or twosuch a relief, the sun
warm on me and the garden
be hopeful today
