A quiet time in the morning can add so much color to our day. Today’s Daily Dose 100 word story is entitled A White Bowl, Enjoy!
A White Bowl
When a bubble appeared I stirred just enough to fracture the dome preventing a mini explosion and avoiding cleanup.
I spooned the hot cereal into my favorite deep white bowl, adding milk while looking out the window into my bohemian French garden.
Each morning as I ate I noticed the snow receding, exposing the dirty yellowish green patches, that yearned to be tended to.
On a branch a robin watched me.
My morning breakfast filled me with feelings of decadence and I smiled.
With the last spoonful of oatmeal gone I lingered, watching the squirrel shake off the morning cold.
