An Ode to the Bathroom Door
How beloved you are
An ode to you, and all that you do.
From keeping smells out, by hiding our poo,
to the more emotional job, of masking the sound
of our tears and sobs.
A place to relax, for our thoughts and repose.
Although sometimes irritating to our senses and nose.
We often forget the importance of one,
yet instantly realize it, when you have none.

A Few Moments More
You’ll give it one more minute, and then you’re headed back inside. It’s pretty chilly out, after all. Not that that’s a real issue - you’ve stood out here for longer, and in colder weather. The snow is nearly gone already; tiny, dirt-stained islands of the stuff form a shrinking archipelago dotting the sea of green that is your backyard. Striations of sunlight dance through the trees at the edge of the woods and paint the scene in a camouflage of brown, green, and gold.
