NaPoWriMo Day 15. Today’s poem is called Commuters and was inspired by my trip to London today.
Commuters
We sit across tables
hunched over screens
tippy tap, tippy tap
stopping now and then
to stare at the latest mail
then off again
tippy tap, tippy tap.
From time to time
we look up and
catch an eye
then look away
tippy tap, tippy tap.
We barely notice
green fields and
blue skies flashing by
tippy tap, tippy tap.
Pulling into the station
we close our lids,
grab our bags and
rise to go home
where we sit
in front of screens
ready for more
tippy tap, tippy tap.
