A Week Winds Down

A week winds down a tight spring unwound Hours of non-stop motion fraught with emotion... The sun's glare softens emerges a pale moon The day lingers long in the middle of June... Shadows stretch across the lawn dancing waters of sprinklers on A car pulls up. A man gets out and smiles wipes his forehead dry, and is gone I watch in wonder. Where is his stress? And what would he have seen if he'd been watching me
