Winter Dreamin'

Yarns spun, cosied up to a fireplace on a frigid day so cold that even the icicles are shivering,


No warmth from the sun 

covered in sweaters and blankets

weaving our dreams 

telling stories to ourselves

about beaches and the open road

in a convertible - a cherry red one - 


punishing ourselves………..No

Not punishing ourselves….
just dreams of being Thelma and Louise - 


feeling guilty for ……. No

Not feeling guilty…..

eating more mint ice cream and chocolate chip cookies


~~~~~


Reboot:

Yarns spun, cosied up to a fireplace on a frigid day,

so cold that even the icicles are shivering,

No warmth from the sun 

covered in sweaters and blankets

telling stories to myself

weaving my dreams 

about flying away to Hawaii - 

in my personal jet on flame painted wings ~


Restless and cranky…….No

calm, centered and bowing to the Universe


Sticking and stuck to the sofa……No

Up and rearranging the living room……


~~~~~


I give up - it’s all good.

I’m just making supper -

I haven’t eaten enough today…..


“When it comes to life, we spin our own yarn, and 

where we end up is really, in fact, 

where we always intended to be. “
