kitchen has the
needed amount of time spent and
opportunities for all the spicy experiments
collecting those bits to
keep the construction of morning flowing
imitating someone who is far more awake
near the sunbeam that even looks like a yawn
get in a stretch and then
open the eyes real wide for a second
now put ice cream in the coffee
dig in the pantry for the right components
over in the window smiles a flower
on the counter is a plate with cheese
right next to the glass with the circular ice cube
surely the winter is almost over
then we begin to go have fun
every place that shows a bloom
playing hard after working harder
