long week
rain and cold
climbing hot sweat from the ascent
chilling in the down breeze
shows cancelled
finances weak
tensions riding high
as though on a wire
with not but the raging flood river below
to break our fall
what sweet respite it is
to come to old friends
relax in simple luxuries
before, taken for granted:
hot meals
soft cushions
cold beer
chocolate
a movie
popcorn
a good night's sleep
you can't pay for these things
but you can tally your blessings
