Just a speck in the universe...but trying to be a compassionate, loving speck.
Retired medical professional, never-retired wife and dog mom.
Her small hands carry
her family's woes in her
pink Disney lunchbox.

Take me somewhere, please.
Somewhere quiet, warm and safe, please.
Arms wrapped around me.

My ideal day:
No TV, news, media.
Yes coffee, dog, book.

Loving the Olympics as usual.
A wonderful distraction from this crazy world.
Does anyone else think Japan's Yuma channeled our Kurt Browning? Totally loved his skate!!!

The heart of another
I protect with vigilance.
Much more than my own.

Pick up your pace, sun.
The days have to get longer...
and whole lot warmer.

Hey, how do I look?
Hey, do I look like I feel?
Good Lord, I hope not!

A glimmer of hope -
the track of a shooting star
in the inky sky.

In spite of all the

The years take it's toll.

Little ball of fur
with a glimmer in his eye..
a stolen cookie.

If Trump and his cronies would have spent time on Healthcare planning instead of bathroom and ballroom planning.....

Dark midnight minutes
Dreams escape me, the clock ticks.
Time for reflecting....

#Christmasmovies

I prefer silly
Christmas movie as I heal.
Easy, comforting.

Cocooning in fur
Dozing at times but didn't
really miss a thing.

The smell of Cocoa
and red-bowed evergreen.
The girl gets the guy.

#haiku #pain

Middle of the night
vigil, waiting for the pill
to swallow my pain.

Since my back surgery, I have experienced more wee hours than I ever have. The stillness as I wrap up in fluffy warmth is a comfort.
The dark sharpens my senses.

For all the "night crawlers" out there...be well.

Chose a rocky path,
"The heart wants what the heart wants"
Brain thrown under bus.

Post surgical thing
Feeling "well" is relative.
A rainbow in grades.

#haikufeels #loss

The loss of control:
Vision, driving, body health..
The loss of freedom.

An excellent write,
A jarring surprise ending,
The best kind of book.
