Putting Groceries away with Pizzazz
is a lesson
my son still doesn't
want to learn
However,
his mom's feet are quicker
than crickets
flicking off
a floor
on fire!
When the right song
is playing.
life is too good
for slow steps
Help me put the food away
Give the pasta box a good rattle,
the Windex needs constant
stirring!
Life isn't waiting
or watching
when we laugh
over spilled Ragu
The Eastern Towhee
finds me mildly amusing,
staring at me with one eye
from the almost empty feeder
These counter tops
are not marble,
some stains don't come out,
and the paint chips when I scratch it
Thank God I care about other things,
and I don't need an audience
to be happy
It can't get better
than dancing
in the kitchen
