Off-balance

Turned tables
Throw me off-balance
Disrupt my rhythm
Stumbling along
Through gray haze
The sun strains to shine
Overcast Winter
Sifts through misty air
Chilled to the bone
Searching for rhyme
If not reason
What would we do
Without daily routines
Holding us together
Like friendly glue
Warm to the touch
Made sweet with
Familiar music
And the sound of our cat
Purring across our laps
