One Fine Day

By

The calm of the water and the light of the day
Make it appear that it is just another mighty fine day
Along the C&O with all it has to offer.
In this case it is a family at work in order the bills to pay.

Their house stands nearby, a possible benefit to their hard work.
The trees stand tall like sentinels permanently at attention.
It is an interesting scene where so little is known
A few words, a hint, just enough to show vague intention.

Are the couple heading home after a long day?
Or perhaps they are just visiting in the warm light of day.
And what of the man who is so close behind?
Is he a helper someone they must pay?

The only certain is that it is one fine day.
No distress or misery can be found during an inspection.
Feeling the warmth of the sun through the lens of the past,
Any sorrow or pain is lost upon introspection.

It reminds us to enjoy the time that we have.
Each fine day is something to appreciate
No matter what is tearing us apart
Take time to reflect and you may find a new way to start.
