What to do?

Who to see?

Where’s the best place around to be?

Coursera on my iPad

Movies on the square

A reading at Labyrinth

Sidewalk salads to share

Health checks and healing groups

Hanging by the pool

Gallery talks at the art museum

propped upon a stool

Hearing strings at Westminster

Or, bluegrass on the green

Learning bridge or mahjong

Or whatever on which I’m keen.

Farmer’s Market on the plaza

Cooking now from scratch

Planting vegetables and herbs

On a very down-sized patch.

Putting aside the cares and woes

Whiling away the time

Sometimes busier now than then

But oh the joy sublime!

Matthews is a child psychologist in Princeton. She lives in Kendall Park.
