Month: May 2020

In the past few weeks…

 

Trees have grown,

gardens are in bloom.

Mother Nature is proud

of the bounty of her womb.

 

In the past few weeks…

 

How have I fared?

How have I grown?

What fresh ideas have sprouted in me?

What new beauty have I sown?

 

In the past few weeks…

 

Trees are taller and wider,

confident in their plume.

Buds have pushed through their skin,

gently spreading their perfume.

 

In the past few weeks…

 

What wider perspectives have I explored?

How am I looking at the world anew?

What boundaries have I overcome?

What’s richer in my worldview?

 

 

Nature would not revert 

to where it was a few  weeks ago.

Then why am I holding on to my past

not wanting to let my old normal go?
