This month I am participating in the Slice of Life challenge sponsored by the Two Writing Teachers website and blog. Join me!
Early morning light
I've been soaking you up
Living each minute, extended
Appreciating each glance
Of your bright rays
Knowing that next week...
Daylight Savings Time
Will swallow you whole
Leaving me to drive again, alone
In darkness
Light that we've wished for all winter
Waited for
Looked for
Anticipated...
Gone.
One hour shifting
Makes all the difference
Between enjoying you
On both commutes
And seeing you briefly at lunch for the first time
My classrooms are without windowns
And I've loved having you
Morning, noon, and afternoon
I'll have to settle for the wait
Again
Watching as you slowly, but steadily
Creep towards my leaving time
Encouraging me
Reminding me
Summer is coming!
