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!
