July 31, 2015

Bouquet of lilies,
roses, honeysuckle, and
Phlox- summer's bounty.

July 30, 2015

Hot July evening,
friends gathered for drinks, burgers-
summer barbecue.

July 29, 2015

No need for a watch-
he wakes me, reminds me of
meals, bedtime, my cat.

June 28, 2015

Warm day, do I drink
tea iced or hot? Either way
suits me to a tee.

July 27, 2015

Tortured sleep, followed
by sunny morning- week could
improve after all.

July 26, 2015

Sunny magical
weeks, weekends with clouds- we watch
The Weather Network.

July 25, 2015

Fresh winds stir trees, nudge
wispy clouds across summer
skies- July weekend.

July 24, 2015

Summer rainfall wash
away my writer's block- don't
make me wait till fall.

July 23, 2015

Blow off the workout,
sleep instead. Tomorrow the
workout seeks revenge.

July 22, 2015

Stargazer lilies
burst, hot pink and white, fragrant-
dry July burns on.

July 21, 2015

Fourteen years we've shared,
tuna, sleeping in, and naps-
happy birthday, cat.

July 20, 2015

Beginning of week
means back to reality-
workdays and workouts.

July 19, 2015

Too hot for morning
tea, I'll throw it over ice-
glass half full, not cup.

July 18, 2015

Reproachful green eyes
meet mine, his dish is empty-
my muse mews a lot.

July 17, 2015

Everyone watches
for clouds, not sun- drought wages
war on the living.

July 16, 2015

Sleepless night, morning
reveals tired cat, humans- he'll
catnap while we work . . .

July 15, 2015

Halfway around world,
have to return home for you-
decent cup of tea.

July 14, 2015

Awakened muscles
scream at me this morning- my
next workout looms large.

July 13, 2015

All holidays end,
rich meals, forgotten workouts-
rude awakening.

July 12, 2015

Cat placidly drinks,
ignoring loud caws of crows-
it's Sunday morning.

July 11, 2015

Their morning antics
annoy the sleepy cat- crows
should hold court elsewhere.

July 10, 2015

Like the dragon, Smaug,
he guards my phone like treasure-
guess I'll stay home, cat.

July 9, 2015

Quarter of food bowl
left, could only mean one thing-
starvation for cat.

July 8, 2015

Contemplative stare,
quiet musings broken- Meeee-
oooow! The cat joins me.

July 7, 2015

Morning meows wake,
mealtime meows castigate-
bedtime he herds us.

July 6, 2015

Wretched summer cold,
sweating indoors I sleep- dreams
of Paris sustain.

July 5, 2015

Arm around my love,
holding my kitty's paw- I
drift into dreamland.

July 4, 2015

What alarm is this?
Chagrined cat rouses me- no
Saturday sleep in.

July 3, 2015

Meows fill the air,
morning, noon, night- newly home
cat vents vexation.

July 2, 2015

Summer cold infests
me, Kleenexes, dirty clothes-
vacation's over.
