At times
A pause
Is needed
A break
In time
To rest
In the stillness
Reflect upon
What has been
And prepare for
What is yet to come
The sun shines bright
On a world of whistling white drifts and slush-filled alleyways
And on the air
There is a touch of spring
A sense
Of renewal
Of awakening
Of forward progress
We wait
Doors latched
And shades drawn
For the cold to pass
For the days to lengthen
And the sun to fall
In longer periods of time
Upon the frozen ground
Warming
Not only the worms and the colonies upon colonies of microscopic lifeforms that lie dormant underground
But also the unbound faces and hands
Of eager lives
Waiting to be lived
Existence, life, nature … Always with the yin and yang

Thank you. 🙂 It is strange how the seasons come and go each year… the transitions often more difficult than the heat, the cold, the snow, the rain…

That is true maybe because its a loss on some level and reminds us deeply of things passing.

I am… better. I was struggling for a while there, if I can be honest. It has been a difficult couple of weeks, but I was able to navigate it effectively and I am doing well.
My apologies for the delay. I needed… a break.
