Saturday Morning

If you only knew how gloriously this day started.

picture a margarine commercial

because it would require

the combined talents of

Don Draper

and his Madison Avenue cohorts

to script such a perfect day.

 

Fade in...

birds singing in the background

light filtering through still leaves as a

pale sun climbs the

cloudless blue sky.

Pan to

verdant green expanses awash with

sparkling dew

as an earth-mother-type

tiptoes barefoot through the grass

to pick spinach

from the garden for her morning omelet.

 

The two hours that this idyll lasted

is the payoff for all the

extreme weather we deal with

in the Midwest.

 

p.s. the omelet was super, too!
