May 18^th  Wednesdays 4pm

 

It’s a funny little routine, as routines go.

Waiting for little Sophia to say hello.

Not that she ever does.

Each week we have a scenario,

Of whether they can connect and go;

Or does the little circle go round and round.

Then no connection found.

And then, like today…

Pow!  And Sophie… hey!

We talk to her and make her smile,

And sing to her for a while.

Bare necessities of life will come to you

Under the sea, life is no troubles

Under the bubbles.

And it’s hectic, and it’s fun, singing to the Disney bands

But poignant too

When we don’t know how much she really understands.

 

And then,

Wait.

For the Morry’s shop chaos to arrive

From 4.30pm to 5.

Bags and bags of food and stuff,

Just enough,

To see us through the week.

But, now we live in town,

It’s so much easier to pop out

To butchers and bakers.

When the fancy it takes us

 

Then again…

Like today.. wait…

We’re still waiting.

For a rug from Amazon,

That we suspect, even though its due today,

Won’t come.

But we wait.

For from us there won’t be any mutiny

It’s just part of a funny, little routiney.
