Routines



Work, laugh, love
Sleep, eat, pray
And so the moments
Slip away
Always preparing
Methodically
For winter…
…and eternity

I am washing and putting the screens
back into the windows today.
It feels like I just took them out
in preparation for winter
and a thought occurred to me…

Is life not mostly a routine of preparation?
Planting, toiling gathering…
Working, buying, using…
Sleeping, planning, hoping…
…for what?
