The Day of Peace?

The Day of Peace?

A Poem by D. Jay Webb

The Day of Peace

The sun has yet to rise

As I make my way to the kitchen

The alarm never sounded, to ruin the tranquil peace

I push the button on the coffee maker

The house is silent

I return to the room

There is my family rhythmically breathing

The song of life

Coffee

Conversation

Packing

Departing

Shall this be the last?

The engines drone on, carrying me away

Away from the peace of family
