Friday's Face

It's Friday,
and this is "a face not for this place",
my countenance
wants to be somewhere else,
but I don't know where.

Maybe it's because
this is my birth month,
the month of my nativity,
and I desire adventure,
or,
at least,
a change of scenery.

Perhaps
I need to go on
a virtual pilgrimage
to Mount Carmel in Israel.

The very thought
brings a smile
to Friday's face.

Author's Note: The phrase "a face not for this place. was a prompt for an entry in a contest. The prompt removed, so I decided to use it in a post for my "Blogging Circle of Friends "  and "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"  posts.
