January 18, 2018. Tuesday Austin Texas shut down due to iced roadways – schools, government offices, many businesses sent out alerts the night before: please stay off the roadways. This happens once every year or so, usually for one day. In colder places, cities take remedial action and keep roadways open. Here, we get a day off (except schools must take away a planned free day later in the calendar.)
I slept in, waking to the lure of chicken soup simmering, gave the day’s opportunity a few select thoughts, and pulled out a jigsaw puzzle. Not just any puzzle – I chose the greenhouse scene, plants thriving while “shut in” – like me. The collage hopefully conveys my sense of being in the greenhouse while working the puzzle.
Very nice, green-house oriented effect! 🙂

I love this! Jigsaws for me are a form of meditation – you really captured that in the poem, how the mind wanders to many different things while contemplating pieces. We made chicken soup too – just the weather for it.

That soup was an instrumental factor in my happiness! Good to hear my rambling snippets portray “the mind on jigsaw” – thank you.
