Today
The day burns on.
The lawn is mowed,
the milk is bought,
the chicken fried,
the cookies baked,
the dog is washed.
The beans were ground,
The floor was mopped.
We went, we went,
We go go go.
And we sit.
Finally.
Together.

I really love this one. It has such a strong rhythm, and the truth of it is simple and lovely.
