Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Tv Has Captured Me Fully Today

TV has captured me fully today. 
I am not struggling. 
Sophie dog is loving it. 
Peapod snuggled in our dual Lazy Boy heaven.

Bag of salty chips and tissues at arm’s reach. 
I give Sophie gentle pats 
Wondering if she notices 
Her snores are loud 

Lulling me toward nap-like feelings. 
We will move to the couch next 
To stretch out more fully 
Until bed time. 

Perfect winter day where school was cancelled.

M. L. Kiser February 9, 2019 at 2:45 PM Ah, I see that you are enjoying them; well penned and another, "fav". Caren Krutsinger February 9, 2019 at 4:30 PM I am so sloth-like now, the most exciting part of my day is my winter cold which has me reaching for my third box of Kleenex.
