Up and down the stairs

Up and down the stairs,

the laundry and me

done.

Laundry done

Laundry done,

I ascend the stairs

to a smile I love.

Darkness on the stair

Darkness on the stair...
Only shadows
stirring there?

Dead bee on the stairs

Dead bee on the stairs –

any kind of omen

I want it to be.

Good Exercise

Walking up the stairs,

4 floors two at a time,

burning thighs.
