uncluttered

there are a few spaces in my home that I really appreciate aesthetically.

My living room
With it's warm yellow walls
Colonial pattern and burgundy accent curtains
Blue Victorian couch
to accentuate the blues in my curtains
Brick fireplace
Oak hardwood
Pine
Cherry

The Behr Brothers & Company piano
Kohler & Campbell black baby grand piano
My dream come true
The fact that I later found that Behr Brothers
was eventually bought by kohler & Campbell
piano manufacturers
both situated in New York
And the way I didn't know that when I chose my new piano
My baby and my grand piano
Where I will write the songs that are famous,
If only famous in the ears of myself
and the friends that believe in the music

The stand where the light sits
That I bought at the salvation army
Chalk ware
Spray painted a dusty blue
in the front lawn with the boys
As they excitedly asked what I was doing
and where I would put our new lamp

The place where the treadmill used to reside
Where I spent so many peaceful mornings
Looking out the windows
At the sunrise
And the mist rising over the hills
Between the willow tree branch picture frame
Working out for health
to regain a shape that I once criticized
But should have appreciated
Because it was as beautiful as the sunrise
And I never knew it

Now I push it
on exercise bikes
And elliptical trainers
in spinning classes
pushed by a Russian girl
with an accent,
as we listen to loud
bumping pop beats
and I sweat.
zumba,
hot yoga,
cold yoga,
any yoga,
Spontaneous nature walks
planned nature walks,
walks through museums,
malls,
grocery stores,
and on sidewalks window shopping.
Dreaming of fitting into
the best boots in the world,
named "cydwoq"
handmade in California,
expensive
for expensive calves to fit into.
Trying to find a place in my body that is still mine
The place that I created and I officially own,
that for some reason seems foreign
like a girl with an accent
