The Week

Sunday, I take out a bowl. Monday, a spoon. Tuesday, open a box of Raisin Bran, Pour some in. Wednesday, the milk. Thursday, I spoon some in and chew. Friday, wash and dry the bowl and spoon. Saturday, return the bowl to the cupboard, Spoon to the drawer. Sunday, I take out a bowl.

I guess my over preparation comes out even in my writing. : ) It's always (usually?) nice to meet a fellow poet. Anyway, thank you.
