My coffee pot is gurgling
I’m killing time
(what an awful, perfect expression)
before that glorious first sip
of liquid heaven
I look out the window
the neighborhood fox
is on patrol
bouncing down the lane
stealthily observing
skittishly avoiding
but I see you
I want to approach
you stunning creature
but I’ll never get close
because
you’ll never let me.
A beautiful start to a morning. I like how all of your slices come out looking and sounding poetic.

“I’m killing time” is such an awful expression, but it really is perfect. I love your description of the fox and your thoughts – painted a picture in my mind.

So poetic with gurgling coffee pots, liquid heaven and a skittish fox.
