interrupting the routine

















i left the laundry behind 
and the pickleball
games

traded them 
for dew on leaves
dragonfly wings
and the garden’s other 
offerings

i drank eagerly
of her cup

juice of zinnias
dripping down 
my chin  


"Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue."

"Oh, taste and see...."  ~Psalm 34:8
