Mentioning

The rising sun A smoking gun A pestering cat My Father’s old hat The enticing whinny of my favorite mount; The one on which I can always count. Some of my favorite things- My lover's seraphic expression There are more I must mention; The Red sea My parrot’s resonant cacophony The Mother who brought me into this life; In all her strain, devotion and strife. When things turn around And everything is upside down Skies all look ashen, There is but one action, I think of the above ; And feel immersed in love. About my day I go, Thinking of my favorite things. Honorable mention in "My Favorite Things" contest. A. Green
