Drifting out the window
As thoughts go
By
A coffee in hand
Brunch on the table
Writer’s block
As the clock ticks on
Relaxed breath
Awaits
As time slips away
Now the rush settles in
Bags packed
Uniform on
A planned routine ahead
As I board
A rumbling tram
Motions are set
Moving forward
Music playing
Book being read
Those last hours of play and work
Hath arrived
As I serve snacks
Belonging to the afternoon
Hand out activities
Tick off names
Giggle, laugh, act
out silly
Help with behaviour,
Manners and study
Day turns to night and parents bolt in
Tidy and clean
Packing and organising
A day to the close
Back I go
Towards my rumbling tram
For
home
Greeted by a meowing cat
Demanding for a
Pat, food and love
A meal upon the evening hour
In
front of the small screen
Before time comes
I stumble along to bed
Sleeping and dreaming
Of a new day ahead.
