February 28, 2014

A shared laugh at a
party over a strange soup.
A new friend is made.

February 27, 2014

The spaces between
clouds are filled with orange sunrise.
I’m full of dawn yawns.

February 26, 2014

My impatience grows
watching tiny Bearss limes grow.
When will harvest come?

February 25, 2014

Cat leaps onto quilt
fleeing from woodchipper noise.
My bed’s a fortress.

February 24, 2014

Drowning in password
sea online, all with riddles.
Every day a quest.

February 23, 2014

Snow falls silently,
mesmerizing watching cat.
Day outside is ruined.

February 22, 2014

Amidst rain, snow falls,
it’s thwarted by early spring.
Grass remains fresh green.

February 21, 2014

Thirty years ago
you made me a big sister.
The decades fly by.

February 20, 2014

Day is breaking, but
I don’t want to part from you.
Half sleep is pure bliss.

February 19, 2014

Cat reluctantly
places warm paws on wet ground.
Snug sheepskin slippers.

February 18, 2014

Day replaced by night
in dark foreboding storm clouds.
Basking in phone’s glow.

February 17, 2014

Endless tortured hours
waiting for night to slip by.
Winter sleeplessness.

February 16, 2014

Little containers
heaped with many tasty treats.
Dim Sum belly ache.

February 15, 2014

Near to the ocean
the seagulls call mournfully.
Sun sets on the day.

February 14, 2014

I prefer yellow
roses to red, plants not cut.
Better yet, buy none.

February 13, 2014

Resplendent peacocks
pale next to you, gorgeous soul.
Age creates beauty.

February 12, 2014

Little toes spread to
clean with pink sandpaper tongue.
Elegant cat bath.

February 11, 2014

Magical cat tongue
can drain water dish like food.
Waves lapping at shore.

February 10, 2014

Cat glumly watches
rain lightly falling outside.
Cat cabin fever.

February 9, 2014

Round here snow is rare,
magical, doesn’t linger.
Twinned white fawn lilies.

February 8, 2014

Dew on spider webs
glistening in morning sun.
Beauty captures me.

February 7, 2014

Sun warms the old cat’s
back through single paned windows.
Outside frost wilts leaves.

February 6, 2014

Damn bureaucratic
incompetence strangles me.
Weeds choke out spring blooms.

February 5, 2014

Can’t budge scale despite
gym, lentils, and misery.
I’m too full of hope.

February 4, 2014

Body racked by pain
from two brutal hours at gym.
Hot bath changes day.

February 3, 2014

Branches scraping the
glass produce eerie screeching.
Spring bird songs delight.

February 2, 2014

The young sapling sways,
strong sea winds blow down my street.
Inside we sit snug.

February 1, 2014

Light finally breaks
on this cool winter morning.
Bird sounds excite cat.
