Eyes Closed

Often
on the way out the door
to work
on a beautiful beaming day,
I'd say
with my eyes closed
and warm beams on my face,
"If only I had more time
to appreciate this."

Now
here I am
no longer working,
sitting out on my porch
on a Saturday morning
and the day doesn't quite feel
the same as it once did
back when
I could only see it
in
passing.
