The place where I live is infused with
Expectation and delight.
It is not a common abode.
(That would be all too simple.)
From edge to edge, it neither
Holds nor bars memory.
Instead, it invites the present:
Dirt tracked in by the dog,
Friends dropping by with a
Package (literal or not),
Seasonal items decorating
The table-tops and mudroom,
Soft places of comfort that are
Big enough for at least two,
And “life” in all its forms.
As I glance from ceiling to floor
I drop into a simple and satisfied
Thankfulness.
