Sleeping House at Midnight

Words fuel my night
I resist the clock’s backlash
With a book fortress

Validation

I paused the chaos
Long enough to check others
It’s the same story

Mall Meditation

I wandered shopping
Chasing my runaway thoughts
My feet stalled, head gawked

Extrinsic Parenting

Some gave towels seats
Others were quiz bowl trainers
Most cheered for not much

Warning: Secret Plans

I booked happy hour
Close to a surprise date night
His disclosure worked

Bedtime, No Thanks

I avoid bedtime
Kids, cats, hubby are sleeping
And I bop around

Coffee

A cup of coffee
Let us catch up a minute
Before we talked work

Time Handoff

The clock curled up tight
And hid time from my real life
Then gave it to work

Holiday?

Labor Day for me:
Lots of laundry, work dig out
Raincheck, pretty please?

2013 State Fair

We joined the cool air
And breezed around the fairgrounds
Steering through the crowds
