When the Children Sleep

Time sits and watches when the children sleep. The water settles around the spoon in the sink. The dog lays on the couch. Ideas once silent begin whispering in the back of the mind.

Tell me something that I haven't heard.

The drip from an eave.

The click of a wrist.

The children are quiet the house sleeps.
