Sunday Car Rides

Most people our age

Are hungover

But we're driving to a garden centre 

 

Comfortable in this shared space

An unspoken flutter of excitement

I sip at a coffee

& he plays with the radio

Flicking between 5 buttons

But only 2 stations play

Making small talk...

about the small things

and the small ladies walking the small dogs

An escape from when the world is too big 

And these quiet Sunday drives

are something that I love

& I can't get enough of....
