Sunny today -
inside at my computer
I wash down my Vitamin D with orange juice

on the other side of the tree row
the car lights from the highway
twinkle through the trees
like Christmas

placing the tinted blue contacts
in my brown eyes
turns my eyes...

Wondering about the comings,
the goings,
the conversations along the way...

lighting a candle on her birthday
the flame flickers, teasing me about being older
the way I used to before her passing

First Snowfall
driving my new car -
with every slippery turn
my heart skips a beat
like the satellite radio

filled with catnip mice and jingling balls
the kitten walks away...

My first slow cooker meal.
To fight the urge to peek inside,
I tap on the glass lid
and watch the drops of condensation roll down,
leaving a streaky site
of my yet to be believed cooked meal.

Tiffany
the names of their children tattooed on his forearms
on her shoulder -

With visions of traveling to a warm climate
I scratch off the squares on my lottery ticket.
The hissing steam from the radiator mocks me.

waking to find
the game feed on FaceBook is broken--
exhilarated and anxious at the prospect of free time

the traffic cop
shoos the cars away from the airport pickup curb
only to have them pull over again
when his back is turned-
like flies on garbage

in the parking lot
the heavy rain creates small puddles
exposing the asphalt paver's inadequacies

I am like the drop --
that slowly makes its way down the shower curtain
growing larger with miniscule molecules of moisture
that rise from the steam...
when suddenly another drop,
with its own momentum,
unites with it
racing them both to the freedom of the drain

more final decisions are made
from cell phones
on the airport security line
than in any meeting during the day

the diet and exercise magazines
replace the holiday cookie ones on the supermarket shelf
opposite the Valentine candies

waiting in the crowded jetway I realize,
for a road warrior,
the only nature we get to observe
is human nature

Taking my seat on the airplane
after a festive holiday season.
Have they made these seats smaller?
