She knew when she opened the window
That day
That it would be
One
For the way.
The frost on the petals
The chill in the air
The way that stray branches
Scraped against the stair.
The breath of new winter
Kissing her hair.
For the dVerse quadrille challenge: Way
Tis the Whey Weigher’s way
To weigh
The whey
As she goes
About her day
Sifting curds
Through woven trays.
You can stay
If you may
To watch the way
She weighs her whey
In pots and jugs
Of rounded
Clay.
And though so many
Will downplay
The lowly whey
As throw away,
She knows it is
Quite fair to say
That whey is worthy
Of more sway
And should more than
Earn it’s pay.
(I had WAY too much fun with this today! 🙂 )
