At the End of the Day

It's funny, the random things that remind you 
of what a lovely place the world can sometimes be.
Like two little birds alighting on a wire,
as you emerge from the underground
just at dusk on a Thursday:
two weightless silhouettes,
suspended in the pre-star sky.
I wonder what journeys they've seen;
if they are recounting the day's adventures, 
or merely resting in companionable silence 
as the sun takes its final bow.
