Slanting Sun

The sun was shining through the window at an angle that told me the day was almost over.

I paused

and noticed that my everyday duties seemed full of grandeur.

It was one of those moments that seemed to stop, just for a tick.  

The picture.

Frozen.

My breath was soft and I remembered that these days won't last.

Soon, this stage of busy.

Crazy.

Exhausting.

Will end.  And I will be alone with my thoughts.  With the quiet and with my memories.
