Thirsty

NSAIDs
made hiking aches
go
so
I slept well

today

windmill blades
rattle in time
but the well's gone

dry

February 70's
fool desert fruit
March, April, May snow

happens

Mother's Day is safe

gonna water my
apple tree

anyway

not wanting to wake 

it

just looks thirsty

Thanks Jim... I'm more or less just journaling right now.
