An East Coaster Travels

while

a night’s stay

at Chateau Marmont

is a little rich for the

commoner’s blood a   

            $14 dessert

of almond & hazelnut

meringue        

            chocolate ganache

& espresso buttercream is

not

            while

savoring each sweet bite

            a browse through

the rest of their decadent

menu

            garners a delight

the

mussels served in a

coconut curry broth hail all

the way from Prince Edward

            Island

my neck of the woods           

                                    I have

to sample them of course, a

            little taste of home in

West Hollywood

A fun little poem/blurb today.

It’s Friday, sunny, and a whopping fourteen degrees so naturally I took to the daydreams. A true Spring day that’ll knock whatever ills left in my system from my sick day yesterday.

I’m happy to have put pen to paper. It’s getting me in the mood for tonight, the annual poetry reading at City Hall with Open Heart Forgery for Poetry Month – the Mayor will even be on hand for some of it.  I love that it falls on a Friday this year. And, while I’m there, I’m going to see if I can peek at the Legacy Room and feast my eyes on the Gord Downie statue. Fingers crossed!

I am reading a poem for my Big Sister tonight. One poem. One purpose.

Happy Friday peoples!

In propinquity,

Nic
