Cancelled cocktail time
Grabbed my kid and walked the lake
Slipped back to fourth grade

The burden lifted
And help showed up in my cube
See some breathing room

A stark shoe store scares
Yet I walk in with visions
I win. My prize – boots!

Women sit circled
And play games in quiet air
They obey the script

A sleepover wins
No curfew, quality chats
Grown-ups included

Six highways to drive
Just for a haircut from Dan
Color by Heidi

Outside silent rain
Inside piercing drops thwacked me
I brushed them away

The sun swatted us
Hopefully for the last time
Ninety five again
