Matin

 

 

I must have the newspaper in the morning,

I must hold it, feel it, fold it, read it

Caress it like a lover

& I also need

A cup of steaming hot tea

& NRP

Anything else

Would be uncivilized.

My cat yowls for his food;

And for awhile

All is right with the world….

This ritual happens

365 times

A year.
