Weekend sails at dawn
Taking pause from work
Leisure setting sail
Life catches its perks
Respite time knocking
Relief from week’s stress
No agenda waits
Saturday brings less
Lazy day ahead
Nothing on day’s scope
Extra morning time
Coffee’s horoscope
Sadie holding leash
Ready for her walk
Sun’s delights greet us
Sharing, we both talk
Taste mid-morning brunch
Sweet morsels waiting
Fruit-filled muffins baked
Hunger abating
Afternoon nap calls
Cozy spot surveyed
Blessed Saturday dreams
Respite’s lasting crusade

The inspiration for this poem comes from spending an overnight stay with Sadie, an English Lab. She served as the perfect hostess while her family was away.
This is how I’m spending my Saturday today. I’m doing nothing at all. It’s raining so the only thing to do is watch the grass grow.

Kathy, I like your plan. Just don’t dream of having to mow the grass. Blessings to you and Paul.

One of my Mom’s favorite muffin recipes is sort of like coffee cake. Plenty of cinnamon in it! I am sure you can find something delicious under cinnamon coffee cake muffins.
