12/27/11 - God's Eye

Late morning the sky of God's eye was covered with clouds. The weather channel said wind advisory in it's monotone font. The palm trees swayed and sprinkles fell. I pressed the on button of the coffee pot as mom and me finished the puzzle started back before Christmas- before the trip to Roanoke.
The parking lot was vacant except for puddles collected by God's watery eyes from yawning which blew the reef down. Dad was still sleeping as the coffee pot dripped as well.
The stereo played swing music quietly. The speakers spoke in a whisper as mom opened the blinds. Piece by piece the sky was created on the puzzle with a purple blueish tent. Occassionally we lifted our heads to watch the old man storming. Is he angry or just well rest as the ones inside yawned their last yawns after their first sips of coffee.
Dad awoke determined for coffee. He sat down beside me to fill in the sky of the puzzle.
The three of us eventaully finished the puzzle as the twinkle of GOd's eye started to show outside while the clouds rolled back. The winds died down. The surf of the beach saturated by the ocean and rain as we viewed the completed puzzle.
