Ochre Idyls

Poems, Haiku/Tanka, Short Fictions

Sunday morning breakfast was a ritual in our house. Our father always making bacon and eggs, or pancakes. Not much deviation. It didn't matter. It was always a treat. We'd all be released from our chains and he'd start cooking. Please and thank you, we'd say, and he, you're welcome.
