Just Last Year

Last year, I was putting up new curtains Adding new rugs to my trailer Taking chances on bright and bold colors All the glories of new beginnings Last year, I was adding to my Tupperware New bowls, happy and vivid To keep all the good feasts I’d made In hopes of serving them with dinner Last year, I was encouraging my husband To plant new bulbs in the garden All the daffodils, crocus and lilies I love Inspiring my heart, soul and spirit Last year, I was adding sofa cushions With verses inspirational and kind Little additions to the living room couch Awaiting my guest’s appreciation Last year, I was filling my cupboards With new pots, pans and dishes Making my kitchen seem all new again Welcoming the luxuriant spices Last year, I was using my skills as a wife To experience the nesting experiences November 5, 2019 Last Year's Nests Poetry Contest Sponsored by: craig cornish
