3WW: Jolt, Ribbon, Zeal

The ringing
of my phone
jolted me
out of the stupor
of blogging.

It was my friend
asking if I’d like
a glass of wine.

“Sure” I answered
with zeal. So, she’s
on her way.

And I’m typing
quickly
to get this done.

Outside, the clouds
are turning
into pink ribbons,
the color of
white zinfandel.

  3. Phew, I like Australian white wine, you can mix it with whisky and honey and lemon and hot water on a cold day!
    We call it a blob!
