62 village scene meditation I'm having breakfast and listening to music on the balcony Tea with milk, cold water, two slices of pound cake, an apple and spicy crunchy coated peanuts A playlist with Etta James, The Mamas and the Papas, Alberto Bembo, Brigitte Bardot, Louis Armstrong Eclectic theme this morning Under the music, past the sloshy pool sounds, I hear two women arguing from behind the hedge in the garden across from me I know exactly where they're standing because a snoopy grandpa in an undershirt/A-shirt and oversized boxers is not subtly craning his head over the balcony railing above them There is an unexplained giant ladder leaning on a very tall palm There are the cotton ball clouds I like And a soft breeze making me sleepy A red dragonfly dancing over my laundry on the drying rack, I don't want to fold today Baba and Tante Z called, both sounding chipper Baba updated me on the garden, "IT WILL BE A SURPRISE" Enjoy it baba "YES..." ... "PASSIONFRUIT" Oooo "YES." Kate Bush playing now-- what is this? I think I broke the Spotify algorithm I like it 😊 Have to go borrow onions from tante I was going to borrow sugar too but I remembered that I turned into my mama and have about a thousand packets in my purse The breeze is too yummy to move |
