Slice of Life: Day 6--"A Friday Five Senses Poem"

This month I am participating in the Slice of Life challenge sponsored by the Two Writing Teachers website and blog. Join me!

I see my quiet little house with just enough clutter to be homey, but clean enough to keep me calm for the weekend.

I hear soft doggy breaths beside me and creaky hardwoods and wind whispering outside.

I smell the sweet hyacinth that was a gift for volunteering at an event last night...who knew purple had a smell?

I taste my warm licorice tea, a gift to myself this week at the grocery store when I saw that my favorite brand of tea (Stash!) was on sale! (I also got Meyer Lemon--oh my!!)

I feel calm, peaceful, content, and so happy. It's Friday. Tomorrow brings a blank slate of to-do's and wish-to's and going-to's...but in whatever order I want. Is there anything better?
