Fine Print

a proprietary fact…
you’ve signed away every drop
of your blood and sweat in inc,
for perks like healthcare

his dark eyes can pierce my soul
his kisses, oh, they make me swoon
lulling me to sleep, we spoon
soft snores, puppy breath

Uh, yes, I sleep with this big lump. 175 lbs of love! 🐾 Maxwell, English Mastiff. #DOG is my co-pilot! 😉

“Office Politics”

watch your back, mind your business
ears are everywhere, beware
choose your comments carefully
nose to the grind stone

You may have noticed that I am alternating themes this month. A Dodoitsu is a 4-line poem with syllable count 7-7-7-5 and is written about love or work. Today is a work day. I keep my resumé fresh. That’s all I’m going to say about that! 😳😎😳

baby wisps of hair on skin,
glowing, backlit by the sun
the scent of musk, partial smiles…
things that stir my soul

December Dodoitsu #10

dawning amber, silent morn
screaming tires, grinding spin
ripping through the frosted din
travelers beware

We had record breaking snowfall here in the Blue Ridge Valley. The official tally for my little town was 15 inches (38.1 cm). In a place where even a third of that depth can shut things down, I’m in no hurry to leave my cozy home. Bring on the hot cocoa and cinammon toast. Have a lovely Monday!
