In my mind's eye

I am standing
At the sink
In the darkened kitchen
The dishes are done
The full moon rises
Over the ridge
Washing the fields
In cold light
The trees
Make black shadows
You're sitting in the other room
With our son
Watching American actors
Chattering in German
Which only I didn't understand
Entschuldigung
Es tut mir sehr leid
