Friday afternoon
Weekend starting very soon
Is it five o’clock?
Reflections
Squirrel Life
Hey! We’re going up the fence!
No! We’re going down!
Wait! Is that a nut?
Up the tree! Hurry!
Run the fence!
Let’s go in the yard.
DOG!
Up the fence!
Office Morning
Empty coffee cup.
Catching up on all my mail.
There’s a meeting soon.
Hoping
I was changing the dogs’ water last night.
Carefully washing out the bowl.
I realized that Rocky never drinks from it.
He uses the one in the kitchen.
There is also water in his food.
Katie used the bowl I washed.
She crossed the bridge this month.
Maybe if I washed her water bowl,
She would come back.
A Bit of Concern
A small crunchy snake.
A multitude of birds.
Three little rats.
A baby bunny.
My Chihuahua has killed them all.
So, now, I wonder.
When he leans over to lick me,
Is is affection? love? respect?
Or measuring me for a death shake ?
Friday Eve
Are you sure today wasn’t Friday?
Can you check again?
Can we pretend just this once?
Maybe it’s a Leap Year?
Lessons
After terminating a lot of old folks,
By making them move into the office,
It turns out people can work at home.
From sometime in 2020
Recovery
Sadness is still here.
House is now one dog quieter.
Seems very quiet.
Daily Routine
Start with coffee time.
Shower, shave, traffic, office.
Meetings, work, traffic.
Quiet Sunday
Wife is sleeping.
Chihuahua is snoring.
Wordle is done for the day.
Time for another coffee.
Maybe a nap.
