"Life - its just so unfair ~ "

"Life - its just so unfair ~ "

A Poem by Chris
"

The day after ---

"

A bit of examination followed by observation and introspection; ending in a historical retro-spect - 5-7-5-7-7 no less.  I must agree...

"Life - its just so unfair ~ "

A week of
nasally-stuffing sinus-seizing brazenly-c o l d,
umbrella-destruction-windy,
deeply-dark forebodingly winter-gray,
rain-swept-body-soaked
heart ground and ground
into the pavement,
days
- becomes
a s--l--o--w,
cinnamon-apple and hot-chocolate-scented-memoried,
sinfully toasty, beautifully resplendent
autumn-sun-drenched October
weekend saturday - afternoon...
where even the daymares have their own
comfy cosy to be cosily-comfy.

Now I understand
the ol' Dagwood comic strips -
all too well - uh huh...

Even genderless pillows
are Siren snuggle-bunnies.

This one made me laugh! xD
You brought about time and the time of year changing, loosing light and time to get everything done, into a mirthful and almost comedic thread of thought. Not to forget about those damn sniffles that seem to always catch up to us in fall.

When I stop and complain...I remind myself that it's better than the alternative. We must have the crappy days to appreciate the good ones I guess.

Ha ha who needs misery when you can have Dagwood and hot chocolate followed by snuggling with the body pillow. This is awesome and original work!! Love it.

I just pulled my sweater around me a little tighter and am thinking some nice hot Lemon Zinger. Maybe I'll make some pumpkin bread, too. Smells so good. Just like fall...just like your piece. Thank you.

You really know how to make an miserable week into something special. I love the optimistic flip from- "A week of nasally-stuffing sinus-seizing brazenly- c o l d"
to- "cinnamon-apple and hot-chocolate-scented- memoried, sinfully toasty beautifully resplendent" -- Splendid, indeed!
