The sunshine is slanting down from the blue eastern sky. The thriving kale is glowing greenly in the light, and the lettuce and spinach and radishes are peeping up above the soil.
The dog is barking and carrying his blue dog toy to and fro. And now it’s his magenta monkey. And now he’s barking as we dance and sing to Stevie Wonder with long yellow beams of morning light reaching across the floor.
And now the boy is up. And he’s getting ready to go. And we’ve got our sweaters on and are getting a leash for the dog.
And now we’re leaving. Going to get breakfast tacos just down the street.
Happy New Year to you all.
…slam!…
