One Of Our Days

Roadwork noises by my window 
Fertilize this dreary day  
I am doomed to live in limbo
In the realm of disarray
So I’m punished with the sounds
And I wait to be released 
They’re renewing the old ground 
When they finish, I am pleased  
Let me enter to your garden
Of the everchanging glow 
It’s a paradise we’ve gotten 
Playing games we used to know
I'm amusing you with knowledge
You are laughing till I'm gone  
Till behind your back the foliage
Casts a shadow over lawn.
