3 days after touchdown

The fever now seems lifted.
Our girl in the night.
Well we have all caught up.
We have all paid our debt
for time in travel
in tears and bemusement.
And though too young yet to see
the yard drenched in braw moonlight
as bright
as a Scotia May day,
we'll play with that another night-time.
For now, silent sleep
by far
the sweetest sound
round here,
these last three days.
