295: Our Time

'Time flies when you're having fun'

I heard somebody say —

or maybe that's all part of the text,

part of the message,

part of the reminder.

We wake up at 6 AM.

Next at 9 AM.

Then it's noon.

We eat breakfast after one.

Time flies — I close my eyes and it's gone.

Is this what time well spent feels like?

A kiss on the neck, a quiet "good morning",

doing dishes together

and listening to music as we share and share and share —

our time, our space, our words, our laughs —

This is our time.

We spend it how we will.
