Our
azure-days---follow…midnight-stars!
Sharp blue-eyes
followed a corkscrew grey-fog rise from the surface
of brown-calm
hot tea as the orbs twinkled in contemplation. In
the background,
his sub-conscious caught the subtle shuffle-noise
of Nanny
beginning preparations for the evening meal. Yum!
Through the
crystal window-glass (Nanny being a fastidious housekeeper
with
“immaculate”-results) Bapa noted the descending winter-sun, mentally
noting the hour
to be nearly four; as soon as he finished the warming-liquid it
will be time to
don the winter parka and wool hat to reluctant-exit the wood-stove
warmth and
pleasant supper-odors to brave the cold for evening feeding-time.
Already, the
cattle-herd approached the loafing shed, sheep had found the
straw-filled
stall, chickens were at-roost, horses nickered soft-expectations.
And, when the
chores are done---complete…supper…to await quiet diamond-stars!
Amen!
