In the Moment

I'm wondering how far down in this featherbed I can sink
Late December skies are changing from gray to pink

Heavy frost covers winter's lifeless ground
Roosters crowing - the only sound

Christmas is over and I had fun
Love my family, but glad it's done

I feel as stuffed as the Thanksgiving turkey
But want more of mom's home made candy

I think I'll just lay here and snooze all day
But wait......the smell of coffee is drifting this way...:-)
