Cocooned
I’ve been cocooned for three straight days
Within my warm apartment,
Accomplishing assorted things
And writing (my department!).
Though sick at first (which made me sleep),
I read and watched some cable,
Then made some photo books when I
Felt better and was able.
Some crosswords kept me occupied;
A book held my attention.
I never cleaned a closet,
Though that had been my intention.
Outside it’s freezing cold, I heard
But at my body’s urging,
I think tomorrow from my snug cocoon
I’ll be emerging.
