I haven't used the blender

In a while.

It rests

Lonely

On the countertop,

Not even

Plugged in.

I miss the smoothies

I used to make, 

I have all the ingredients.

Today

Is the day

I will try another.

I gather frozen fruits

From the freezer: 

Strawberries,

Peaches,

Raspberries, 

Mangoes.

Along with

Lemonade

I find 

In the back of the fridge.

I eyeball the recipe.

The blades 

Chop

And 

Churn

At the mixture,

Until

The color is even, 

The texture is smooth.

Poured in a tall glass,

Sipped with a straw:

Perfect.

Crazy

What all these

Different Ingredients

Can Create

Together.

If only life was that 

Perfect.
