After

In the musty aftermath

of last night’s rain

and a sense of your body’s comfort

I pace our room, arranging books

or washing cups

till I’ve tidied away the morning.

Settling down to my table

this afternoon, too, will pass –

sifting listless pages,

while I hear again a sound of dogs

that miles away

through sleep were barking.
