A few more minutes

"Ra-ta-ta-tat," say the blinds
as they take their turn allowing the light in
A new day takes shape
as she lifts her arms
and stretches
Awakened with eyelids closed
Fresh air circulates the room 
while the scent 
of an approaching rain
tickles her nose
She cuddles onto her side
Fingers intertwined
Legs pulled in to warm her chest
Amazing things are up ahead,
But what's a few more minutes?

  2. I love the thinking of the scent of the approaching rain, there is a different smell in the air when it's about to pour!

  3. Hm-m. It's great being able to turn over & say 'what's a few more minutes?" That's vacation I think. Thanks, Mandy.

  4. Sweet personification! You capture that 'vacation feeling' nicely through imagery and line breaks. Nice! :)
