He observes the snow,
wondering how it would feel.
But he's warm inside.

November 29, 2014

Shaved patch on cat from
trip to the vet makes him sad.
Dignity is hurt.

November 28, 2014

Can't see your features,
just your dark shape in window.
Cat's early morning.

November 27, 2014

As I leave the bed,
he pinches my heating pad.
Cat dreams of zebras.

November 26, 2014

Sick of that road crew's
noise day in and day out. Time
to finish the street.

November 25, 2014

Putting on my shoes,
my coat, going to see you.
Reminisce 'bout past.

November 24, 2014

Delicate shoots of
paperwhites reach for the light.
Soon, gorgeous fragrance.

November 23, 2014

He turns his back on
me. What did I do? A cat's
tender pride slighted.

November 22, 2014

Lovely silhouette,
cat in bright sunny window.
Warmth lulls him to sleep.

November 21, 2014

Swish of cars outside,

driving through November rain.

At least it's not snow.

November 20, 2014

Lime blossom opens,
faint jasmine scent wafts to me.
Hope of future fruit.

November 19, 2014

Rush of the furnace,
dry air fills the house. Outside
air whispers autumn.

November 18, 2014

Amaryllis grows
by day, inching towards sun.
December beauty.

November 17, 2014

Leaves fall to the ground,
grass is green from rain, sunshine.
Victoria fall.

November 16, 2014

Cornflower blue skies,
crisp fall air, the open road.
Sunday afternoon.

November 15, 2014

Bring your voting cards,
municipal elections.
Time to vote today.

November 14, 2014

Snuggled in wool coat,
crisp morning air, memories.
Glad I'm out of school.

November 13, 2014

Sun streams in almost
making me forget autumn-
cold floors remind me.

November 12, 2014

Despite the chill, sun
streams through the window, warms cat.
I rely on tea.

November 11, 2014

Pin my red poppy,
honour dead family, troops.
Remembrance Day thoughts.

November 10, 2014

The chill of autumn
necessitates chicken soup.
Fresh bread insulates.

November 9, 2014

Dull grey day begs a
hot pot of tea, time to dream.
Soon it will be spring.

November 8, 2014

More cocoa powder,
for your chocolate birthday cake.
Bold, intense flavour.

November 7, 2014

Lapsang souchong leaves
placed into teapot to steep-
bold, mysterious.

November 6, 2014

Promise of winter
colour, flower bulbs planted.
Now I sit and wait.

November 5, 2014

You want up. Is it
just to derail my writing?
Or for more kisses?

November 4, 2014

Over the chair's arm,
there's a loud meowing cat.
Meaning is unknown.

November 3, 2014

How can I adjust
to months of dull grey drizzle?
Autumn on west coast.

November 2, 2014

Extra hour to sleep,
it only comes once per year.
Small payment for dark.

November 1, 2014

Candy hangover
magnifies road construction.
I'll sleep it off more.
