The winds been blowing hard today
Yes the reeds by the lake are bent down
In a drastic way
It was calm yesterday
You could toss a stone into still water
And watch circles ripple away
Store another memory of two different days
I was walking in New York City
On the Tuesday after Labor Day
There was humid heat everywhere
And people going every which way
Six months before on Saturday
I slid down a snow covered hill
There was no one around
In the Alaskan winter chill
Store another memory of two different days
Tomorrow I’ll work all day as a carpenter and a cook
Then close up and put away another 24 hour book
I’ll spend the next day in an easy restful state
After I wake up after sleeping late
