Laundry Day

I hesitate when my fingers close over the slightly damp
socks and tee-shirts still hanging on the clothesline,
and I weigh the risks of leaving them a little longer
in the wind that grows stronger with impending rain.
The ants begin to bite my bare feet, making my decision
for me as I grab fists full of clothes and head for shelter.
