doing dishes

every day
i try to do some dishes
by hand

i like the rhythm
the feel of the dishes
and the chance to stand
breathe
and be

"unfettered"
 me

  1. There you go again, Terry, capturing the sacredness of the ordinary - right there in your kitchen sink! And what a joy to have the colors of your dishes sing so beautifully together!

  2. Well, it looks as though I'll have to leave a few more lying around for you, then... :)

    All joking aside, I think you hit on a good point, in that it's important for everyone to have something equivalent to "dishes" to keep in a good rhythm on a daily basis.
