slow slower stop

Mornings are slower now
Time for a walk before coffee
Time for silence as the rest of the family sleep
Time to write to you freends
Yesterday was swimming n chips n shopping
Pushing my way through the maddening crowd
Desperate to find a last minute gift for the
Lovers in my life
Avoiding tacky Christmas displays
n credit card debt
Wandering drunken santas
Floods of humanity
(in bizarre fashion this year)
Long lines at checkouts deserted by assistants
Then long afternoon naps
With family n freends visiting later
Wine n antipasto n celebration
Fond farewells to travelling companions
Children’s toys n stories
Music songs readings
Something real to pass the days with
And then today…
Thinking about thinking about praying
About liturgy
About art n poetry and what cd
Should go on next
Bowie I think
See ya later
