While I Was Away
I step out into the night
soft tapping of rain on leaves
the smell is in the air
harder rhythm of water hitting concrete
motors hum
headlights pass
the world keeps moving
frogs sing to the night
a passing thought
what happened to the warmth of the sun
on this brisk spring day
it seems like I was only inside for a moment
I know I was working
I know I was doing something
papers
screen
light
room
chair
desk

what did I do
what did I forget
what happened to the day
I remember the warmth of the day
the feel of the sun
the chill in the air
Breeze in the night
soft tapping of rain on leaves
the smell is in the air
harder rhythm of water hitting concrete
motors hum
headlights pass
the world keeps moving
frogs sing to the night
the world changed while I was away
