After a Hiatus
After a hiatus
Getting back to your routine
Feels both strange and yet familiar
Or more likely, in-between.
So today I took the subway
‘Cause my quilting class begins.
I’d forgotten how the crowds get,
Bumping knees and toes and shins.
But at last I reunited
With my classmates, what a treat!
And arrived in time for claiming
What I think of as “my” seat.
It’s a pleasure to return to
Someplace where you feel at ease
Though when there is a hiatus,
There can be no guarantees.
