HOUSE SETTLING

 

House settling;

ghost footsteps

creak in the attic

as rays of sunshine

seep between the blinds;

dust particles bathing

in the subtle light

 

a black and white film

plays on the TV

and the dog is gnawing

on his plastic bone

 

I sigh

and take a sip of tea

I look at the clock

and hear the seconds  and hours

steadily slipping away

I'm just full of suprises.  Wait until I break out the salty caramel hot cocoa.  Winter is upon us.
