Oh, much longed for day you have arrived!
Slowly coming awake
cool pillow caresses my cheek,
your hand heavy with sleep on my hip.
Sipping coffee slowly
as we watch the dark clouds race across the sky.
Birds race to the feeder before the rain.
Candles flicker to dispel the gloom,
laundry spins in the dryer
as I settle in for a quiet afternoon.
Late in the day the sun breaks through the clouds,
turning the raindrops into prisms of light.
Beauty revealed, patience rewarded on this lazy Saturday.
