The sky
of my morning
is a white board
waiting
for words
or pictures
or scribbles.
I’ll start
with breakfast-
so many
options: yellow
and white eggs,
or raspberry
jam on toast,
or sliced
banana on English
muffin. I sit
watching
a squirrel
in the woodpile
flit back
and forth
like my indecision.
I’ll just let
fate
grab a marker
or two,
maybe a red
and a black
to doodle.
Oh, she’s choosing
blue and yellow.
Time to eat
and go
to the beach.

That was the best read for the day.. Apt to the prompts..and lovely rendering..! Simple, yet the flow was inspiring..nice!
I agree, simple yet, vivid in the pictures you painted.
There's a lovely relaxed feel to this poem, as though it's going to be a lovely day whichever decision you make.
A white board of opportunity..tabla rasa..almost..that first morning decision is when you have to start making your mark on the day..yellow and blue..maybe a banana eaten outdoors in the sun at lunch time..Jae
wonderful
Thank you for your comment Linda, much appreciated. :)
I love how you made nature the creator of the canvas.
I love how you likened your indecision to a squirrel... I can relate!
Ohh, I love this...so sensory.
Nice work.
Well that was carefree and flowing. Very nicely done.
It was great to picture the scene, have breakfast, look out the window and toy with the markers. Captivating.
The tone of this poem is wonderful and encouraging. A good example of attitude shaping reality.
