Involved

Get involved in a project

And the hours just slip away.

Before you know it, dusk arrives

To zipper up the day.

 

No matter what you work on,

Using implements or brains,

The progress that you make depends

On how the time restrains.

 

With luck, you get to finish

Or make good on your intent,

‘Til you look outside and wonder

Where exactly this day went.
