Chores

Chores

I never thought
I’d be so happy
for a chore day!
Waxing the cockpit,
cleaning the floors,
repairing the dodger
where the stitching had ripped.
It was sunny and peaceful.
No company.
No schedule to keep.
Easy cooking.
Room for a private conversation or two.

It felt so good to be quiet
to be alone with my thoughts
to be working side by side
just the two of us.

  1. Now that we are on an airplane winging our way to you and Azure Wind, I'm reading your observations with a different perspective. You and Dave treasure your time alone, you really like being alone i.e. no guests. Too late ...we are coming anyway, Pete and Repeat
