Breaker Box
Breakers Not Tripped

I’m happy to say it’s Saturday.
Two days past our anniversary.
Hotel breakfast bar….
Uh Oh, Breakers quit….
Guests in a quandary…

And I think about down time.

A guest who is an electrician
Asks if he can look at the panel
Perhaps I can diagnose, says he.
Voila! Tripped and all back in service.

And I think about down time.

As the lines queue up
Everyone makes noise,
Asks questions,
Try to make toast from something not working.

And I think about down time.

I slept 9 hours. Unheard of!
The room was quiet, dark, and cold.
That’s the secret to rest.
The colder, the darker, the quieter…
The Best!

And I’m enjoying my down time
