Ending October
An unintentional loss
Something small
Yet of irreplaceable worth
Turning the heart inside out
Bringing smoothly running schedule
To a screeching halt
And then November
A family of colds
Woke up in our house
This morning
Calling for ginger tea
And Chicken soup
A week of grey days
Cold intermittent rain
No lasting sunshine
Raw cold
Dulling mind and emotions
Life in our house
Slowed to a crawl
Sleepy any hour
Lunch at 2
All tasks undone
Kinda nice when it's everyone
No one trying to pull us along
No one insisting on regular meals
And tasks to be be done
Too bad Aiden is well and active
Waiting patiently at times
But now moping
"I want somebody to play with me"
