sunday sleepy, soft and slow
the domestic minx
20 Comments
Bliss, a Sunday peeping splash of sun
through curtains white and open still
to warmth of yawns
that tingle, fingers lingering,
kisses sweet, so soft and slow.
Body sleepy skin and eyes still closed
to teasing touch that rouses,
rousing, so arousing.
Stay in bed
today, please stay.
So stay in bed...
Oh dear reader,
I have an idea.
And an invitation...
if you would like..
Would you?
Would you like to visit me, today
at home,
even though, perhaps, I may still be half asleep...
Oh, you see, the day is slow, delectably slow, and the sleep surrounds me still with such mellifluous and miasmic lullaby that I cannot and will not be roused...
And it is sunny, sweet and warm, so lusciously, lazily warm.
Luxuriating cat-like, I stretch and yawn, body basking in the slow glow of Sunday,
Oh, so truly decadent, darling and delicious am I, today.
Please stay.
Just make yourself at home while I brew us some coffee...

Oooh, certainly. Mine's a cup of teas though ;-)
Sure, I'll stay for a bit. Though I have to hurry up and get back to my own Sunday, which will not be slow AT ALL.
Lola,
I have all the tea in China. It'll be a slow boat there today...
I love the way you wrote 'cup of teas"...
Did you mean, cup of tease?
There's plenty of that here, I can assure you...
Oh Belle,
A busy Sunday is the most vile abomination!!!
I do hope you will be able to put your feet up somewhere towards the end of the day, perhaps with something a little bolder than coffee..
You don't have to ask ME twice!!
Looks charming by the way...
I am enchanted by the winsome little dog - wearing a boa no less.
I love lazy Sundays...
Seductive photographs ... a frowsy, drowsy Sunday morning woman. What are you trying to <i>do</i> with Harry??????
Kindest regards
THJnr
Eddie,
The kettle has boiled and the boa is ready.
But only for ChiChi if she cares to wear it - and what high stepping little Italian Greyhound doesn't!
I will only deign to wear the boa if there is champagne for breakfast darling.
Which is a possibility...
I do have some chilled...
Why Harry!
seduce you with my decadent, darling and delicious world, of course!
Damn that ocean. I'd have loved to have visited you. And warm coffee along with fascinating conversation sounds just like what the doctor has ordered.
You are dealing with more than a hangover here my darling Kitty. You are dealing with Karma.
Karma, Kitty...
Your restitution will be achieved after acknowledging the need to prostrate yourself on the Altar of Shame. I have rather an adequate one here that you could have availed yourself of, if you had made a visit...for coffee, karma and conversation...
I'd have loved to visite you... But yesterday I have to vote you know... If i Knew....
(special dedicace today with the awfull English "doudou" of my daughter)
Dear Violette.
Yes, the voting, of course...
I see you have a new president...
You will always be welcome at my house!!
xx
Beautiful post, DM. Makes we wish it was yesterday again!

Oh so do I!
Because today has been MONDAY and it has been quite horrendous...
I wish every day could be Sunday...

I love the July jewels pic, very cool.
Ah, a visit would have been nice, to have a cup of coffee (which I rarely make myself) made for moi. I could enjoy that a lot.
my dear sleepy minx,
you have done what most minxes do when they are burrowed up in their warm cozy nests, you have decided to sleep and dream and lay about in a seductive minxy world. I have done so on similar occasions being the lazy kitten that I am. I usually try to find a warm sunny spot to stretch out on and once my fur is warm a long luxurious catlike stretch and some warm milk and a gentle massage. minxes and kats are very much alike...
as far as this morning though I opted for breakfast in bed and a sinfully hot bubble bath with a cup of tea... then off to teach my loyal yoga followers into the land of bliss.
Once again you have led your loyal readers to santosha, my dear minx validated in your beautifully constructed flowing flawless words...
In order to lead someone into bliss, you must come from bliss so enjoy enjoy enjoy!
purrrr.... strettttch.....yawn

Oh Minxy, nothing could possibly be more divine than a lazy Sunday with you! How sad am I to have missed such a lovely opportunity?!
Sigh. Perhaps another day then.
xox!
Jafabrit,
July Jewels is a gorgeous piece by Kellyann Denton.

I love her work and purchased it through the Creative Madness project last year. This little beauty lives in our bedroom - perfectly appropriate, although I did want it in the kitchen at one stage, deliciously confronting as it is.
When you visit, you must bring some of your own pieces...
Kettle's on...
Oh it is bliss indeed to luxuriate in such warmth and comfort.
I am very cat like and am incredibly indulgent...
Most mornings see me up and industrious at 5am so it is my greatest pleasure to relax and do nothing on a Sunday morning. I simply loathe it when activities are organized on this deliciously laziest of days...
It is Monday all too soon...
Ah Santosha...I love it that I am leading my lovely readers there. Bliss is a beautiful address.
Purrrrr
xox
Oh Margot,
I missed you!!!
And it was such a delectably indulgent day.
I am totally Spanish on Sundays:
"How beautiful it is to do nothing,
and then rest afterward."
Ahhh...luverly...
momento encantador
Next time...
