Twenty Years Away From HomeMy Room   
Each night, my sister and I  
share a creaky old bed  
‘cause she can’t stand to sleep alone.  But, this is still my room;   
Which has a view  
of the bent willow tree,  leaves tracing letters  across the window screen.   
And most nights, I hear  the Bay Line clank and moan,  heading north to Alabama  along highway 231.   
The smell of the paper mill  will seep through these walls  
of sheet rock and aluminum  in a way no hurricane ever could.   
My sister’s breathing slows  down into a deep dream, &nb Twenty Years Away From Home

the livingroomwidowed now, and children gone  there is no purpose for all these rooms  except to store, in boxes,  things gathered in this life,  
things to leave behind   
it’s easier now  
to have the bed in here  flanked by green wingback chairs,  with doilies on their arms  and watch the television sleep,  like a black and white rabbit,  just beyond one’s feet   
the convenience of having  the kitchen close by  or, on the days the aide comes,  to not have to travel down  that long, dark hall  yes, it is easier  
to spend the rest of one’s the livingroom

to the person for sending me a print of *violetlove's orange burn



I got it a couple of weeks ago and it's gorgeous!!!

I just wish I knew who did it. :aww:

Also, thank you to my hubby. I got the lawnmower I wanted for Mother's Day (a gift that also takes care of my birthday, anniversary, and Christmas for this year). I put it together this evening, and I'm looking forward to trying it out tomorrow afternoon. :dance:

Life is good, and hectic.

End of year reports for work.
Revision month on dA.
Another project I need to start promoting. (Bear with me, *Negated ;) )

I'm thankful for all the new people I've met here.

Gratitude is catching.

My son offered to say the prayer this evening (a rare treat indeed).
Just a few of the things he said...

thank you for the sun
thank you for the moon
thank you for the stars
thank you for my friend Jacob
thank you for grandma's house
thank you for The Bee Movie...

:heart:

Sounds nice. Still a little remnant of winter here in SC.
No hurricanes though (at least I hope).

I won't miss that about Florida.
