Oh, Well
That first sip of coffee
on a Sunday morn,
Contentment covers me
like a warm blanket.
All is quiet but the occasional drip
from the kitchen faucet.
If only this peaceful feeling
would stay the whole day through.
I watch out the window
in hopes of seeing her.
It has been over a month
since her last visit.
She should have brought
the newest addition to her family
for viewing by now.
The doe and her offspring
are what make the view from my deck
spectacular,
instead of just nice.
The peace did not last long this morning
Quiet air has now been shattered
by singing canaries
and squawking budgies.
Oh, well!
it was lovely while it lasted.
