Autumn Sun
My desk, for the first time in two years, faces East again. I had not thought much about about it until this morning when I noticed how the sun has slid to the South as it comes up. There are three windows which I face, and it is the middle one through which the sun, decidedly to one side, now transits. Before I moved, my windows faced North, and I would notice the light, but hardly the sun's passing. Now I am much more aware of the days growing shorter and I think more awake to use the day as it arrives. There is not so much daytime to be used now.
Work, for the night is coming,
Work through the morning hours...
Work, for the night is coming,
When man’s work is done.
