Monday's Poem © Jenni Uitto Morning Fire sit cross legged in your white cotton pyjamas by the fire this fire its wrinkles and gaps where orange meets electric blue where jagged towers rise, translucent amber waves steaming over steaming up listen to this sound a swirling chiffon dress hem wind alive in the trees I'm not going to work today I will heed this call follow the dog's mocha eyes her compact body angled towards morning

Morning Fire
sit cross legged in your white cotton pyjamas by the fire
this fire
its wrinkles and gaps where orange meets electric blue where jagged towers rise, translucent amber waves steaming over steaming up
listen to this sound
a swirling chiffon dress hem wind alive in the trees
I'm not going to work today
I will heed this call follow the dog's mocha eyes her compact body angled towards morning
