First of all Bruce goes out for some night-time air,
and to attend to other business.
A few minutes later
The door explodes,
- the little dog comes rushing through,
his nails clitter clattering down the hallway.....
- and it is time for evening treats.
Callie gets in on the feast as well,
but in a much more ladylike fashion.
I gather up my mints,
my Ipad for watching Netflix
(until my eyes waver and close,)
and as I go to lock the doors
and check that the pilot light
in the little gas fireplace is on and burning brightly
I am awash in the lovely fragrance of the Hoya
as I brush past it.....
What a perfectly lovely way
to end the day!
And how generous the Hoya is
to scent this wintry evening!
Post Script...
many thanks to Ruth for helping me
