The Day Before We Leave

The Day Before We Leave for a Trip
is always full
of folding clothes,
of cooking food,
of last minute errands,
of snappy comments,
of snappier retorts,
of apologies,
of maps,
of moving things from the house to the bus,
from the house to the bus,
of early theoretical bedtimes
and late actual bedtimes,
of stomach butterflies,
of last minute trips from the house to the bus,
of wondering what the next adventure brings.
