Corner Coffee Shop

Listen to the back-
to-back talk between booths at Vic’s,
Sunday morning conversations,
songs of sun and lawns and new arrivals,
tiffs to smooth before the in-laws visit,
calls to neighbors just in from the 9:15
from others who’ll attend a later Mass,
a playback of last night’s game
and the story about blue
herons alighting in your backyard.

Hi Micky,

Just found your blog via Rus's P & P blog. I've got you in my RSS feed now and linked at FFTMC. A belated welcome to the blogosphere. Love your blog name and the place looks good. I wish I could see the yard with all those flowers!

Peter,
Thanks for dropping in and great that you've added me to your Far From The Madding Crowd blog.(Cool site) I'll be sure to add your blog link here. (I leave all that stuff for weekends, so expect it Saturday)
Wish you were here, too. My husband, Peter, loves to show off the garden. It's in its purple faze now with lots of phlox that are attracting butterflies.

Thanks, bossy. Good to see you around here.
That heat wave you've been enduring is coming this way. Fortunately only for a day or two. Hope that means your town will be cooling off soon.

Hey Kate,
I'll be sure to drop in for some java if ever I'm down under. Thanks for the invite! I'd love to meet all your little kiwis. (I'm good at 4-year-old rules.)
