My mouth has been full of thank yous.
Bright threads of them
trail through thought,
Images flit in memory
like a convergence of moths

The day’s events are over
and all their preparations
can now lie smooth
for the next day’s work to build on

In a while, all this excitement
can settle as well.
Tomorrow, of course,
will take care of itself.
