HOLIDAY BREAKFAST

As the daylight invades
A most tenacious sleep,
And the odour of fresh coffee
Up worn stairs creep.

Bacon and sausage
Cooking in their fat,
No more persuasion
Needed than that.

Hot toast and butter-
Eggs boiling in a pan.
Marmalade and fresh orange juice
And home made jam.

A handful of cereal
With a splash of fresh milk,
Sunlight plays on dust-motes
Like threads of golden silk.

Breakfasts like this
You could never make so well,
For this is the breakfast
Of a holiday hotel.

Bill Mailliw

We haven't seen you for a couple of days.
You haven't been washed out to sea, have you?
Are you getting as much rain as we are?
We are not in a flood plain but we sure have a lot of standing water.

I need a very special graphic- an internet acquaintance is having a baby girl today-and she lost her little toddler son last year to cancer. I'd like to find a graphic of a little boy angel watching over a little human baby/girl...so I can make her a special congratualtions card.

Anyone can help? Thanks!

It was raining elephants and hippopotemi all last night and this morning! I have been pretty busy the last few days.
Hope you have a great weekend!

Tom Thumb would have appreciated Thumb Appreciation Day.
Tom however, is no longer alive, so he isn't able to appreciate Thumb Appreciation Day, to any appreciable degree.
