February Morning

February Mornings

The house smells of cooked bacon
 wafting through the hallways
 flooding the taste buds with anticipation,

toast browning in the warm red glow,
coffee brewing in the pot,
 pancakes flooded by rich syrup
 pools swimming around the edges,

breakfast waits on the kitchen table
 greeting the cold at morning light
 listening to traffic scans on local tv,

then off into the day of work again
until the weekend rest from constant repeat.
