Poem

Bill: A Dectina

Yesterday’s prompt from Sadje
for Just Jot it January 2024.
Here’s my tardy but heartfelt reply
.
☕️  🥯

With
Humble
Gratitude
For my husband
Who, every morning,
Without hesitation,
Brings me my coffee in bed.
Sometimes he’ll bring a warm bagel.
I couldn’t ask for anything more!
With humble gratitude for my husband.
