Tuesday Afternoon In November

Tuesday afternoon in November. Well this is, the ending of another day I’m looking out of the window the road is clean and tidy after rain. The sun is coming out of hiding and strews golden dust on the window ledge, it is a sort of thank you since I’m taking care of a sunray I found huddled behind the gas bottle in the back yard. It was too cold for it to get back so I put it under my bed – I need only one blanket now- so there are times being kind can be helpful. The sunray, not talkative, hides behind the china I bought for my daughter’s wedding only I never had a child; it was a dream I mistook for the real thing; but never mind the cleaning lady likes to drink tea and pretend she is a grand dame. It is darker outside than inside so I lit the fire drink a cup of coffee, at this end of a beautiful day.
