In the Moment

I'm wondering how far down in this featherbed I can sink Late December skies are changing from gray to pink Heavy frost covers winter's lifeless ground Roosters crowing - the only sound Christmas is over and I had fun Love my family, but glad it's done I feel as stuffed as the Thanksgiving turkey But want more of mom's home made candy I think I'll just lay here and snooze all day But wait......the smell of coffee is drifting this way...:-) Donna Jones 12-28-2014 In The Moment

A refreshing poem that deals with the reality rationally with blunt force. Nicely put, well written with poetic flare. Emile.

What a lovely poem this is Donna! This is the moment of truth, when we know that we ought to go slow on food and yet we find it hard to say no! As for coffee...I'm an addict! Can never refuse a hot strong black coffee! All the best. // paul
