From the Vaults circa. 2006 (2)

'Mind-streams'


Still shots and images across my minds screen like the silent films of the Nikelodeon age.

I feel like i'm a star...Hollywood meets Sunset Boulevard.

I smile and revel in the feelings of fame and fortune and sheer liquid glamour....

Ah, the countless times I dream and they seem real....

Echoes.........


I snap out of my reverie.

Here I am back in my kitchen, sitting at the table; hands holding a coffee mug full of coffee gone cold.

Its an interesting morning if I do say so myself.
The sky is overcast and the air is ladden with a hint of rain to come.

The house is quiet. I sent the kids off to stay with my mother, and my husband is away on a business trip.

As I get up to throw away the contents of the mug, I sigh a sigh of relief.

...Contentment...

There is absolutely nothing planned today accept lounging around and...perhaps reading a book or I might just go shopping....Who knows?

I light the cigarette and chill for a moment.

No sound,
No chaos...just peace and peace purely.

This is what I like.

  Thirty Minutes Later

I'm soaking in my tub and feeling renewed. A glass of White Wine by the tub and soft jazz in the background.
And me? I'm submerged in a tub full of mother-of-pearl bubbles! The feeling is better than anything Calgone could ever invent.

The sound of thunder lightly slips over the jazz wazes and I'm thrilled.
There's a fire to be lit in the fireplace tonite maybe.

Hmmmmmm, i'm not sure what I want to do, but I think I'll just remain lying in the tub full of bubbles, sipping on the white wine and loosing myself in the sounds of Lena Horne.
