A moment of peace

I'll take it

While they are busy in that exact moment of peace accords

Of concentration while assembling airports with parking garages,

In agreement on design and execution,

I'll take that moment in the shade, one leg up, a French novel

On my Kindle, only the stress of having to look up so many words.

I'll take it, 

A moment to capture when I was happy to be there,

A break from frustration and boredom, a moment of happiness even,

Of appreciation in the sharing of these lives,

Of a 3 year old and a 6 year old, a letting go of

The grumpiness of old age and inflexibility,

It's good for me
