Sun spills over my note book.
It’s so pleasant.
I could just stay.
My fish stops her revolutions of the tank,
And turns to look at me.
I gaze back at her.
We are in the same day together,
She and I;
Existing together
In an apartment
With some plants
Some art
and furniture,
a smiling Raggedy Anne.
I am tempted by this quiet afternoon
To rest among my books….
My few familiar things.
Suitcase by the door…
I never sing anymore.
But here goes.
