An afternoon in bed


an afternoon in bed

I see
a bruised cloud
out my window
ripe with rain

serenity

this world
is for me
too

I see
a pee-colored stain
on the floor
that damn dog

annoyance

this world
is for me
too


(There are no photos accompanying my simple poem becuase I couldn't decide whether to take one of the rain-cloud or the pee-stain, and by the end of the afternoon they'd both disappeared. Ahhh...impermanence. )

  1. Aw! I'd definitely have opted to see the rain cloud instead of the peed carpet! Of course, lately, I've seen a lot of both....
    Great poem!
