Glimpse Of A Day

Alarm clock

beeping a reverse lullaby   
Coffee brewing

sounds and smells of the day

lights turning on to block out a pink sky

sleepy little heads rubbed to awake




asphalt and tires mix

with fog
phones jingle faxes rattle

computers hum

people color the in between moments




home

the aroma of dinner

tv casting rainbows around the walls

baths and soft pajamas
stories read

kisses


lights turned off to let in the stars
