bump in the road
guest to stay another month
liking the company

getting the car back
after the accident
is Alster okay?

broken sleep
gnawed mums on the dresser
cheep in the closet

new aches and pains

present themselves when I rise

blessed boundaries

at the body shop
wanting the sun and the moon
but getting their shadow

after day off
doing paperwork
with a smile

hurting all over
trying to find restful spot
in bed or the couch
