Vendredi
I smell marigolds:
childhood garden scents condensed,
nostalgic perfume.
Samedi
Cicada tempo,
crazy insect jazz rythyms,
bedtime serenade.
Dimanche
Butterflies play chase,
spinning circles together
for an airborn kiss.
Lundi
Mushroom stroganoff:
too much wine in the sauce makes
for a boozy meal.
Mardi
Supermarket sweep,
miles of aisles, fill the basket,
then escape Carrefour
Mercredi
A balmy evening,
the nuns keep cool with icecream,
lick, pray, shiver, lick.
Jeudi
Lined up in the heat,
spontaneous siesta,
three peas in a pod.
