Domesticity: Back on Track

Back on track perhaps
But for how long?
Won’t speculate,
Instead enjoy and proceed,

Too long got stuck
And now hopefully
The pace will pick up
Without undue stress;

Spring is here
And although the weather’s cool,
The sky brightens earlier
And stays so later;

It’s always strange,
No matter how many times this happens,
It’s always a surprise,
The return of lighter skies;

And ‘tis so of the inner weather,
As sometimes darkness appears endless,
Although I may know impermanence,
Still each instance is a scary event,

Every release from gloominess
Produces astonishment,
How a new frame of mind arises,
Often with no apparent causes;

From nowhere the newcomer arrives,
Just when it seems
The clouds will never clear
They up and disappear!

‘Tis a mystery
Too difficult to solve,
How everything dissolves
And where it all goes
Nobody knows.
