Forty-one looks like
Autumn flames consuming the maples,
The predawn goodmorning
Of a beautiful woman who loves me,
A circle of smiling friends
Discussing sin and redemption,
A long afternoon nap,
Cuddles on the couch while the Chiefs
Fight their way to last-minute heartbreak,
Shrimp tacos and chocolate chip cookies,
Perfect gifts wrapped by a seven-year-old,
And bedtime blessings before an early night.
