MOMENT TO MOMENT

MOMENT TO MOMENT
This is what's in front of me:
The morning mist.
This is what's in front of me:
The sleepy children.
This is what's in front of me:
Waking the children.
This is what's in front of me:
Watching them roll back over to sleep.
This is what's in front of me:
Waking them again.
This is what's in front of me:
Making breakfast.
This what's in front of me:
A glance at the clock; a fear of lost time
This is what's in front of me:
An inventory of the things that must be done today
This is what's in front of me:
Another glance, another nervous worry
This is what's in front of me:
Noticing the fluttering in my tummy, the rumble of hunger
This is what's in front of me:
The children are back asleep.
This is what's in front of me:
A sip of tea
This is what's in front of me:
The warm liquid calming my belly
This is what's in front of me:
The morning mist rising.
This
Is
What's
Happening
Now.
