Cabin Revisited


At the risk of hokiness, I wrote a poem using that popular children’s style of a line for each letter of the word. Hey…it was fun.

C is for calm
It settles over you like a blanket
You smile for no reason
The morning sun a sacred occasion

A is for activity
Fishing, snousing, eating
Eating again, sleeping, building fires
All things are possible

B is for bring your book
Your novel, your magazine
Your latest find from Barnes & Noble
Journals welcome

I is for introspection
Steam rising from my coffee
Sitting in a chair by the pond
My heart opens to possibilities

N is for NO Rules
Bring your inner child
Relax on the porch swing
Savor the morning sun with your
Pancakes and bacon…at 10am or noon
