Self Portrait: Day Eighty-Seven

i could live on a yogurt mountain.

with my husband and my pups,

and my family nearby, maybe on the next mountain over

(i think theirs would be Mount Reese's).

with lots of notebooks to fill

and lots of books to read.

with canvases to drench
and petroglyphs to be etched.

with a high ropes course

and hammocks

and rope swings, too.

with a slide to the ocean

and wild animals to adore.

while we're at it,

let's add some fairies and gnomes and tiny giraffes,

and i think i'll call it a day.
