Call It a Day

New moon's barely a sliver tonight

  Gathering clouds obscure the starlight 

No friends in the heavens to guide our way 

   We best retire early; call it a day


      
      ~ Good night, Soupers! ~

Do you stay up late Gershon, I do! I have a wonderful husband who had a restaurant for many many years, so I am actually a spoilt brat - I hardly ever cook! We do have a lady coming in to help with the house work, ironing etc 4 times a week , so even more spoilt, but love my home and am somewhat of an artist with the decor of it! Expecting lots more of your lovely writes. Sleep tight don't let the bugs bite. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
