happy 26th, my love

ANIMALS

Have you forgotten what we were like then

when we were still first rate

and the day came fat with an apple in its mouth

it's no use worrying about Time

but we did have a few tricks up our sleeves

and turned some sharp corners

the whole pasture looked like our meal

we didn't need speedometers

we could manage cocktails out of ice and water

I wouldn't want to be faster

or greener than now if you were with me O you

were the best of all my days


Okay, this is only barely slightly interesting, but remember--today is our anniversary. I was making Swedish pancakes, and I crack this egg into the bowl, and it's a double yoke! Kinda cute, right?


So tell me you see the heart shape. Okay, it's kind of a globular, amoeba-ish heart, but it's a heart all the same, right? Yeah, I thought so too!

Kind of a freakish little tribute to our love and marriage of 26 years, but like I've said before, the older I get, the less it takes to delight me...
