Today

Today, I miss you. But today is still good. I’ll get up, I’ll feed the kitty, and I’ll pour myself a cup of tea. I’ve read the Bible and pondered Jesus’ kindness and savagery all in one. I will make some breakfast and share it with a friend, sleepily but happily ending our hunger. I’ll walk around our new state and see it from above, I’ll walk along the streets and see it from within. I’ll share our pretty city with a friend, and she’ll show me the best place to get a good root beer. We’ll enjoy the day lazily and happily. We’ll make more food, or maybe just more conversation. Today I needed to write. Today is a building day. Today is good.
