some days
Some days slip away
Just doing the basics to get by
Not up to anything more
Needing to rest and relax
Taking time out to stitch and mend
Pleased at managing to thread the needle
Making a crude but effective clothing repair
A simple satisfying improvement
Preparing a dinner to last three days
Vegetarian chili with rice and peas
Shades of orange and red simmering
Spiced with cumin onions and garlic
Putting my feet up and my head down
As close to floating as I can get
Letting every nerve ending quiet down
Taking in air and releasing each breath
Going for a walk to get my heart rate up
Seeing what the neighbors are doing
Getting a look at the midafternoon sky
Before resuming my stationary pose
When you are unwell it worries me
Feeling poorly I think in sympathy
But by evening you are up and about
Promising tomorrow will be a new day
