Toasted

February 13, 2016

Bringing our yesterday’s 

into today is no mean feat. 

Too often we drag our 

worries along with us. 

But this bit of writing

has little to do with worries. 

It’s about toast. 

Not the toast of clinking glasses, 

but the first slice of 

toasted homemade bread.

Butter melting on crisped 

brown bread, topped with honey. 

If some worry has wormed 

it’s way into the morning ~ 

a good crunch on the toast

may take the chew out of it.

“I always like toast in a crisis.”

~ James Goss, Doctor Who: Dead Air
