After Long Days of Travel
After Long Days of Travel 5 June 2020 jp After long days of travel A night passes And I open my eyes in this strange abode Rain… Distant thunder… Dog sighs… Drops pattering on roof… Glass distorted wetness… Wind rustles leaves… Contented aloneness In my mind’s emptiness Awaking with dawn From sleeping on the floor Of a wooden shed Dog sighs again Rain patters some more… My skin cool with solitude Caressing my weariness away.
