Time slips through fingers
grasping desperately to halt.
Month comes to an end.

January 30, 2014

Haunches facing me,
no doubt I insulted him.
Proudly indignant.

January 29, 2014

Technology flaws
make me collapse in defeat.
I’m so hooked on you.

January 28, 2014

Creating photo
book is a difficult job.
Playing favourites.

January 27, 2014

Roller coaster of
winter weather now brings clouds.
Cat cuddles closer.

January 26, 2014

The sun has broken
through the soupy seaside fog.
Chirping birds rejoice.

January 25, 2014

From my chair I view
sulking cat sitting on mat.
Life is rarely fair.

January 24, 2014

That look says it all,
you’re in my favourite chair.
Scat to the mat, cat.

January 23, 2014

Your green eyes through the
green pine branches startle me.
Stalking kitty cat.

January 22, 2014

Dining and dashing.
Unwelcome discovery,
moth holes in cashmere.

January 21, 2014

We wait like vultures
by fruiting indoor lime tree.
Lime sparkling water.

January 20, 2014

Guess these bulbs won’t bloom,
quitting after months slacking.
Don’t quit your day job.

January 19, 2014

Lady slipper bloom
drooping towards foliage.
Outer beauty fades.

January 18, 2014

Why yowl at the door
then scorn entering the house?
Bad cat knock-knock jokes.

January 17, 2014

Is my cold tea a
sign of a bad day to come?
Superstitious fears.

January 16, 2014

I never thought I’d
willingly share my pillow.
Cat love is special.

January 15, 2014

Don’t even attempt
one sleep in my slack humans.
A cat needs to eat.

January 14, 2014

Awakened before
five by two meow alarm.
No need for a clock.

January 13, 2014

Bearss lime tree growing
tiny limes from spent flowers.
Waiting for harvest.

January 12, 2014

Don’t want to get up
but there’s a loud meowing.
Cat doorman service.

January 11, 2014

Exhaustion from the
gym. My muscles are aging.
Weight training plan doubt.

January 10, 2014

City crews collect
piles of sodden leaves round town.
Soon new leaves will grow.

January 9, 2014

Single pane windows
let the chill in and fog up.
The joys of renting.

January 8, 2014

Who wants to get up
when it’s dark, rainy, and cold.
Sleep Victoria.

January 7, 2014

Weight lifting regime
has me feeling heavy, thrashed.
Happy in new year?

January 6, 2014

No ambition in
my paperwhite bulbs, no blooms.
I want to smell spring.

January 5, 2014

The sun streaming in
on my chair invites a snooze,
not for me, for cat.

January 4, 2014

Apprehension to
take the car to the store now.
Will I be stranded?

January 3, 2014

Unreliable
car breaks down en route to store.
Tow truck taxi ride.

January 2, 2014

Steady rain to wash
away holiday excess.
Back on a health kick.

January 1, 2014

Feeling of let down
now that the fun has ended.
The real work begins.
