Lampshade and a Dove Audience...

Once in a while...
my lampshades need a little cleaning


when just dusting won't do...

a mixture of vinegar and baking soda...
and a soft scrub brush will do the trick

gentle does it...
a soft rinse with the hose...
and hung up on the line to dry

as for the doves...


they sit in the papaya tree and sneak in some curious (cautious?) glances...
pretending they don't notice I'm there

preening, snoozing, keeping watch


May the Lord bless you with a sweet day, or night
