Involved

Get involved in a project
And the hours just slip away.
Before you know it, dusk arrives
To zipper up the day.

No matter what you work on,
Using implements or brains,
The progress that you make depends
On how the time restrains.

With luck, you get to finish
Or make good on your intent,
‘Til you look outside and wonder
Where exactly this day went.
