to-do

Scribble a to-do list, then post it on the fridge. Look at it daily and wonder how life could be better if I could snap my fingers and have it completed. There's always something that could be written through, whether it's a list with boxes to tick or a line of poetry with words made to fit. But still, there's a list to post on the fridge next to posed pictures of family and friends: the one in Kananaskis with my friends; the one with my niece in the arms of her grandpa and grandma; and a really fine one of my lover and me on a beach in the Caribbean.

I need to remember to include that on the list: Write more lists. Because when I hang them, I am reminded to pause and look at those pictures on my fridge.
