Nicola Hitchcock Ordinary Day
Across the common
Leaves sway
I walk across the common
Children play
An ordinary day
I feel the ground beneath my feet solid
I feel the air circulate around me
Across the common children play
She's got a check blanket underneath her body
She's got suntan lotion
Feels no pain
An ordinary day
Across the common
I pray
Baby cries
Hasn't got the sweet he wanted
Mother smiles
Just an ordinary day
