dandelion wisps float into the air
superstition grips you tight by the wrist
the summer simmered out that year
cookie cutter, pan sheets,
wax paper, pre-heat
the oven lights on
the furnace still hums
the weather forecast is leaving you numb
newspaper ink runs off on your hands
the horoscope holds your attention span
novels pile up on your night-stand
pages are dog-eared
words are underlined
another murder mystery
over-due charges from the library
honeybees pollinate the tulips in the yard
buzzing from every flower to flower
the neighbours don't mind when the band starts to play
as long as it's a reasonable hour of the day
scrape the frost off the windshield
bring the kettle to a boil
dust the crumbs off the table
pack up the left-overs in cellophane
and tin-foil
butterfly ballet by the park bench
tennis court tutus pirouette
glass slippers had me tripping over my feet
a case of curiosity catching up to me
bouquets blustering
powdered sugar dusting
rain drop puddles and
long silver earrings
the shower curtains drawn but the faucets plugged up
someone took a dive in the bathtub
