Sunday Morning

Botti on the stereo
brewing Costa Rican
Sunday has the kindest paper
a break in the December rain
new fungi out back
brief visit by the Bears
mail piling up
distant Advent memories
all the trouble in the world pauses

she says procrastination
I say you say that like it’s a bad thing
everything that should be done
can be done
later

Botti & Lucia Heat Up Emmanuel

It’s time we left our work and went to play
We’ve been at it for hours, I know you’re tired
The days don’t get much longer than today

There’s nothing like the solstice to inspire
So pack your gear and get your second wind
Let’s head out to the beach and build a fire

All our friends are here so let’s begin
To barbeque and let the Fosters flow
We’ll do a little sailing if there’s wind

The stunning sunset makes your soft hair glow
Let’s shake things up as we dismiss daylight
When stars come out the music starts to slow

Botti’s horn was made for summer twilight
Everything I love is here tonight

~ J. D. Mackenzie
