Hey readers! Sometimes, I feel that the weather can reflect the situation of the times. With everything going on in the world, I begin to believe in this a little bit more than usual. Spring itself is even slightly apprehensive of coming out fully. There are warmer days ahead, and that's where I want to compare it to the current mood: even if you feel there won't be a change in what's happening, never stop believing that better days are ahead. It may seem like silly ideology, but my firm belief is in spurring things with thought. May this week's poem keep you hopeful during this strange time of seasons.
A breeze, one that is to be warmer
Turns cold in the morning
Early hours are a bit harsher
As the wind shows no sign
Of being willing to warm again
Afternoon brings clouds
But of the kind where cold rain
Bursts free and chills
They huddle together as if
To pull off a secret plot
Foiling spring showers
The day seems distant
Spring itself is absent
Maybe she is afraid to show herself
For she is aware of the current times
The evening, though always cool,
Seems like a whisper of winter
It blends well amid the moon
But with no hope of tomorrow's warmth
To miss spring is like the times we live in
Yet, I feel and know that we feel
The warm breeze
See the spring's rain
Know the presence of the season
And have hopeful nights of the morning's
Secure and temperate nature
It is like the season is saying,
'For now, but not forever.'
I hope that spring can forgive
My constant looking for her
I just feel a bit more at ease
With her around
These times are so weird
So strange
So unprecedented
But I am confident that
Spring will comfort us again
For right now, we feel unsure
However, rest assure that spring,
When she arrives fully,
Will keep us even more cheerful
Than before
Not forever shall we be left in the coolness
Spring will prevail in her glory
Once more
