There is a pharmecudical commercial where the opening lines are: "It's a normal day for Alice. And that's how she likes it."
And that line got me thinking:
When did we become so apathetic towards normal days?
I ask my husband how his day at work was and his reply, "the same."

We’d clamber up into the sky

gazing at stars of Milky Way
in twilight dreams
we’d float away.
