This morning? A poem came to me before I could even finish making coffee. I still wait for that first sip. It’s been a long time since poems have flowed out of my mind. Reading, reading has always done this. I am a lover of words which express. Now to get that coffee! LOL

There! Today I have a croissant with chocolate in it to go with that coffee, I like this as it’s not over sweet. A tidy square of soft tastiness. Black coffee to wash it down. What an odd statement that is, but it does describe it well. I like the chocolate in these; it is dark chocolate which I find rare to like. This is slightly sweet so its pleasing. I am a connoisseur because taste like feeling is important to me. Coffee must taste like it should, as coffee it should be rich and slightly bitter, not something that gets wonky on the top if it gets set aside. The morning is something to be settled into, felt as it embraces you. Those are the best mornings_____ quiet and gentle ease. A slight breeze blowing troubling thoughts away. Do I sit in coolness acknowledging that breeze or do I cuddle in a warm sweater and give it free reign on my face, hands and leg? Being chilled is temporary.

Lady Chee Chee has arrived and now takes seeded suet to her nest. I wonder about their babies. How many might they have and will they come too? They must be feeding babies! They fly off and then in a bit come back first one then the other. Three or four times each.

My plan today is to allow the day be a weekend day. Afterall it is Sunday. I shall read and dive deeper into a book. Until Ollie or Emma come by. In the evening Ollie pops by on his scooter and asks me when no one else is outside. “Grammie will you come sit outside?” It’s Ollie and the puppy. It’s someone talk to he wants, a presence so he is not alone. I recall wishing someone was just outside too when I was young. The world feels big when you’re a child. I want Ollie to embrace the world outside, so I am glad to sit or do things with him, “Grammie! Come see this!” , “Grammie I did this in school today____.” It has been a while sense we played basketball. We will camp this summer!

Well on with the day! I slept in so it’s a later start. Best wishes! Pejj
