Wondrous Orbs

In January snow i ventured out to the store, where found inside a display of Wondrous Orbs. They usually aren’t available until early Spring, the Roses preserved in a globular water ring. Taking a photo of the glittering delight, until I realized my house keys were nowhere in sight! How could they just disappear from my zipped purse, I clearly remember locking my door in the Winter curse. The Office was closed to my dismay, all I could do was sit in the lobby & pray. A girl appeared who helped me sort things out. Letting me call security on the comfort of her couch. No one would be there until the following day, I’m forever grateful she let me stay. This made me realize their should be more protection for folks who live alone, as my battery life slowly drained out from my cellphone. Thinking about the vanishing of the key, I didn’t feel secure from the mystery. A desperate feeling when you can’t open your front door, wishing someone could install a retina scan that would help more. I wish the pool below had an heated geyser, then swimming in the Winter would be much nicer! They could lite torches making it feel tribal. Instead of covering it up with plastic for cold weather survival. Each Winter I wait until Punxsutawney day for a ceremony of Sunlight rays. Even a squirrel needn’t a lock on his tree home, as I sit & listen to the Winter wind moan.
