You know, the kind that unfurls from pursed lips? Makes me think of husband-man. Pulling faces and speaking in foreign accents. Looking to crack a smile as I pull on my boots and check my mail. Reminds me that this too is the Creator,. Playing silly buggers,. Trying to be the center of my attention. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Today I ate kale from my garden. Said I couldn’t write regularly. As if words could flow on demand. As if I were 3.
