Friday evening

Friday Evening


In the afternoon sun, the asphalt road shines
like an ice rink; flanked by green trees that
cast black shadows, helped by the breeze
they flutter slightly, soundless articulation.

My memory brings me the aroma of curried
chicken and rice, but since it is Friday it will
be smoked haddock, boiled potatoes and
stewed carrots

Still a twenty minutes drive, before getting
home, shadows merge with the evening and
the ice rink is a memory
