Old Brown Eyes

I got home late
On the back door step,
A red rugby hoodie and two boxes of cat food.
On the front door step another letter from my solicitor and a rice pudding under foil
Enjoy Miss Gayle
This is a lovely version of the a Tom Waits classic

    How wonderful to have such caring, kind, and thoughtful neighbors!

    Might you ask one of the choir members to call you an hour before the Tuesday night get together?

    Hugs!

  15. You get so many lovely gifts on your doorstep. I just get headless birds as gifts from Ginger. He's obviously finding bird brains a real delicacy at the moment!!
