Yawning without sleep
Minutes tick by, no sheep come
My exhaustion reigns

Children watch cartoons
A day for remembering
Martin Luther King

1/14/07

A new arrival
Not from the stork, but furry
Purring on my lap

Brunch turns into lunch
Catching up, watching traffic
Hours pass quickly

"Good morning, Lefty"
A friend's routine is shattered
Didn't sign my cast

1/11/07

A weight is lifted
It's a part of me no more
Light colored bone grows

Suit over my cast
Last day for this arrangement?
Fingers and toes crossed

Tuesday awaits me
Packing paperwork and lunch
With trepidation

1/8/07

Shopping bag in hand
In transit from home to work
Accumulation

Shrieking in the night
Protection turns annoying
Nine volt batteries

Car shopping today?
A question posed to parents
Isn't cold or hot

1/5/07

Lazy day at home
Tick, tock, time passes slowly
Wrapped in a blanket

Shaking the window
Sound is foreboding, not cold
It's winter or spring?

1/3/07

A day with my dad
Computers and hamburgers
Fun and games for us

Adios, X-Mas
Season ended, goods packed up
Hibernate a year

1/1/07

In with a whisper
Sans fanfare, a new year starts
Possibility
