BLOG HOPPING TODAY WITH

The Sunday Muse 225

workaholic

she pours herself into

every session

regardless of time or space

her goals defining fortune

the elements

bowing to her beauty

modern day sylph

echoing the passions of

long ago goddesses

she melts the hearts of

each camera clicking male

she evaporates

the mind of each designer

under a natural sun

unshod after

a day at the library

research hours

left to mesh of tomorrow

exploring

she always wore

her mesh stockings on Fridays

for happy hour

a barista takes time off

to go bar hopping

slipping off her shoes

in her empty house

she reaches for

a glass of merlot chilled

savoring her blessings

I had no black
so i paint the hair yellow
self portrait
my granddaughter's masterpiece
and her candid narrative

a plate of french fries
why leave the excess ketchup
food of the Gods surely
the taste of only ketchup
I breath again innocence

flower petals float
in a bowl of water
pre covid days
this mild infusing of
fragrance and a child's joy
