Dream

I woke dreaming these words:
Astronauts, Cosmonauts
astro-nuts cosmo-knots


We laugh at the moon

I got up. It was 3:AM.
I bet we got 12-14 inches of snow.
The snow squeaks as I walk the paths through my yard, with Lily it is so dry.

Lily barked and woke up the neighborhood
Shhhhhh.
My husband got up at the usual 4 AM.

School had been cancelled last night after we went to bed
due to yesterdays blizzard.

Let's have an ice picnic I say to my husband.
Let's not, and say we did! my husband says.

You are no fun. I said laughing.

we sit at the round dining room table drinking coffee and eating the toast and banana packed in his school lunchbox
The moon is in the sky. She is full. It's 5AM
The moon has moved to the right of the telephone pole during the time we were eating, he said.
I just moved it back said, laughing, sitting in the directors chair,
We laugh at the moon.
What did you do today? We stayed home and watched the moon.

My coffee tastes terrible because I didn't run first! we laugh, Bill Evans was right. You run to make the coffee taste great.


She'll be setting in half an hour hurry up and say goodnight to her. I tell myself running into the backyard.
She's standing over the short cottages illuminating my world.
