paint job

the spindles are getting
a new coat today

lucky spindles

having someone
come along
to take such
sweet care of them
just when they are beginning
to peel and
crack

freshen me up too
i think
as i stroll by
drinking in the smells
of fresh paint
and iris




*happy footnote: I found that the smells of the paint and iris and the scene of the "lucky spindles" did indeed refresh me. It seems as though it is usually through the small things that God chooses to encourage us. :)
