A glass, a plate, two cookies —

A parade of one

I load the little wooden tray

With more than I will need

A cookie for the now-me

And one for later-me

Ten careful steps from here to there

The ice keeps ringing time

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

The floorboards creak their old applause

The sun escorts me through

The window seat is set for one

With room enough for two

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

Mmm... mmm... mmm

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

A glass, a plate, two cookies

The parade has reached the sun

A vintage-warm acoustic album for stepping away from the desk - mellow fingerpicked guitar, soft piano, tender young vocals, a whisper of vinyl crackle, and five bright sunny-pop tunes woven in, following one refreshing hour of a well-earned break in seventeen songs.

The story begins as summer light interrupts her work in "Glance." She sets down her pen in "Comma," stands up for a big stretch in "Stretch," swings the window wide open in "Latch," and lets the fan stir a breeze in "Fan." She pours a cold drink in "Pitcher," carries a tray to the window in "Tray," and settles into the billowing curtains in "Billow." She trades whistles with a garden bird in "Whistle," watches the trees sway in "Sway," and bites into a chilled peach in "Peach." The heart of the hour arrives as she closes her eyes and breathes in "Exhale." A tiny waltz drifts from the radio in "Radio," her fingers snap along in "Snap," she doodles on the corner of a memo in "Doodle," walks barefoot through a pool of sunlight in "Barefoot," and the hour closes golden and unhurried in "Later" - the work can wait.

Each track carries just a drop of quiet grace, making this the perfect soundtrack for coffee breaks, slow afternoons, and gentle moments away from the desk.
