A Slow Night

The falling flakes of snow glitter in the setting sun. Soon the silver moon will gleam against the soft whiteness of the cold snow.

The warmth of my tea diminishes the coldness near the window.

My thoughts think to various recipes that could capture the warmth and comfort of winter.

A peppermint chocolate brownie could bring the perfect taste of winter.

Or maybe a soft molasses cookie, to bring the spice and comfort of the cool weather.

So many ideas ruffle through my head, shooting out from my fingertips which type the thoughts on my laptop.

The quiet sound of the bakery brings me ease.

Today was a successful day; I sold out before noon.


As the night stretches over the small downtown street, I can’t help but wish life could always be this quiet and pleasant.
