The ‘kids’ are yawning and scratching, ready for bedtime. The last sliver of sunshine for the day, and all the animals are accounted for! 😃simple bliss.

"There’s rain in my brain,
A pitter patter on the old grey matter,
[Chooks] and dogs in the cerebral cogs,
A shower dampening my mental power.
 
There’s precipitation in my imagination,
A cloud collision in my vision,
A deluge in my centrifuge,
A tidal surge has overwhelmed my optimistic urge,
 
A tsunami is rampaging through my spiritual harmony,
A lighting strobe just struck my frontal lobe.
There’s a vortex in my cortex,
An eddy in my heady,
 
A blizzard in my gizzard,
Hail in my vapour trail,
Sleet on my feet,
Snow on my big toe
Making me feel low.
 
I’ll pop a pill and rest my head
Upon a bed of feather
And when I wake I’m hoping
For bright eyes and better weather."

“Four be the things I’d been better without:Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt.”

And so would the chickens - full of curiosity - and love of all things for pecking - around our house.

— from the poem “Inventory” by Dorothy Parker
