Rainy days
and cool to turn yellowed green to red
already
Too much to do
and not busy enough
and tired, tired
of being strong enough when
I am not, not
really
and tomorrow asks for more than
I have.

I live a feelings sort of day and
scrabble 'round my
scattered thoughts
new shoes, warmer clothes, too much
money
I can't serve when
I'm not worrying
. And
I'm not worrying,
don'cha know, 'cause it's today and
tomorrow
has enough trouble of its own
.

but I sure don't want tomorrow
to come.
----------------------------

Still out of town - be back next week. I got that 20-degree drop in temperature I wanted, too. I'm not in a real hurry to go south again. Except my husband is there. And we miss him.

On rainy days I always think of Jack Johnson's "Banana Pancakes."

Well can't you see that it's just raining,
There ain't no need to go outside...
