Sunday Scribblings for December 2, 2007
Walk

I wait
while the lavender
evening
fades to gray
and then changes
into a little black
velvet dress
before
heading out
for my walk
each night.
I sip
the dark
whiskey
of fresh air
and nibble
on the Ritz
cracker
of the moon.
A little conversation
with myself,
a wave
at the stars
and this cocktail
party
is just the treat
I need
after
a busy day.

Exquisite - gentle, warm, image full and overall delightful.
What a beautiful way to end the evening, esp. loved the boost it gives to relax and enjoy the simple pleasures of nature- and the dress up too :) Thank you.
