CUSTARD DREAMS
for Lars
and Anne
His wife has her feet up
reading the paper, content.
He hasn't even walked through
the morning garden.
He has no plans
when he remembers
his friends who dropped off
two dozen eggs from hens
who eat only grocery produce
and restaurant food.
He's stirring golden yolks
into thick whipped cream
as he rises from his lazy chair.
