Flour on the floor makes my sandals

slip and I tumble into your arms.

Too hot to bake this morning but

blueberries begged me to fold them

into moist muffins. Sticks of rhubarb

plotted a whole pie…


With a feeling of being summoned

Urgently, but by a most gracious invitation

To breakfast on slices of watermelon

In the company of naked gods and goddesses.
