My Daily Commute

Sometimes I pull my coat tighter around me; sometimes I ponder; sometimes I leisurely stroll; sometimes I’m moody; sometimes my face is caught in the wind’s embrace; sometimes I watch the world go by; sometimes I chat to someone I’ll never see again; sometimes I gaze in childish awe; sometimes I concentrate hard; sometimes I look but am not looking; sometimes I flick; sometimes I read; sometimes I listen; sometimes I cry; sometimes I pray more; sometimes I worry more; sometimes I smile and people wonder why; sometimes I run; sometimes I let them stare; sometimes I’m jostled; sometimes I’m inspired; sometimes I wait and wait and wait; sometimes I notice; sometimes I almost die; sometimes the rain can’t get me; sometimes the snow sparkles; sometimes I’m not alone.

All the time I get there and I get back. All the time I know that I’m being looked after. All the time it’s a new grape to ‘burst against the palate fine’.
