Take two aspirin and call in the morning.

I'm going to post the other one here after seeing what reactions (if any) this one gets.

love this one
time passes
the trouble is that snowflakes do "boil" even when we watch them
i love whistling kettles
i will invent a kettle with holes in the spout
see how much steamy blues i can play before my fingers burn
(autobigraphy) :)

Ah, our morning tea, and some porridge! I am making my morning porridge this way: first some boiled water into a saucer, leave it for a while with some flakes, sometimes I add just a little salt (I have a low blood pressure, and I need some salt)
then putting this saucer into a microwave oven, half power, and some 5 to 6 minutes. Marvelous!

O new moon,
you are also thirsty --
this morning rain

:-)
