I feel the tiredness that tells me it will only be a few moments after resting in the bed before the sleep train will pull out of the station.   It feels so good.  And here is a flower photo because it has been awhile and flowers are our friends.  I should appreciate them more.  Maybe have some growing here in this room.   But now. . .sleep.

And then it is morning again.  Just like that!  And so dependable.  Never once has it failed to arrive although, of course, people don’t make it through the night all the time.  I hope to be one of those someday.  Just let me drift off in a dream and not return.

Here is a photo that struck me as being sort of interesting this morning.  Apparently we are heading back to  botanical garden mode as far as photos are concerned.  We are leaving the tropics behind.  We are leaving poetry and writing behind too.  I hear the sighs of relief.   Where are we going?  Not sure yet.  This weekend there is an air show around here.  But it’s supposed to rain?  Saturday is not going to be a good day for the US Open I hear.  Last night they said something about it during the Andy Roddick match.  I went to bed as they began the fourth set.  Who won?

So it’s maybe not going to be a good weekend to be outside.   But we shall survive.  Maybe I will read and write about some really good authors and poets.  I strayed too far outside my comfort zone in those areas and need to retire for awhile.  Maybe watch Craig Ferguson for a few hours.  He is so hilarious.  He has more energy than all the other guys put together and he is so funny.  In my opinion anyway.  Everyone has their favorite.  Beth really likes Dave.  The guy who has been distributing meat and cheeses to the Tri-state area for how long?  I don’t get it.

I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.  ~e.e. cummings

Here is a flower photo I am sure some of you have seen before this moment.  I need to isolate it in a post in order to present it in the Lens Day Challenge.  So here it is again!
