standing at the sink \ an unnoticed pause



standing at the sink \ an unnoticed pause

Standing at the sink doesn’t take long.
Hands in warm water.
Plates passed from one side to the other.

 

The movement repeats.
Nothing needs deciding.

 

Thoughts drift
and return on their own.

 

When the last plate is done,
you dry your hands
and carry on.

 

 

This reflection is part of: everyday rituals \ small habits that shape quiet days and: the quiet home \ spaces that hold quiet moments
