house on the clouds

Tenzin Lhagyal

An unfinished book
Tea, once steaming hot –
now a cup half full with a thin veil of cream
A mid morning nap, just because
The scent of detergent and talcum after a warm shower
Freshly picked vegetables from the backyard garden
Mountains for as long as the eye can see
Rising embers from an evening bonfire
A sunset to be grateful for
