Faith: Moving Forward

After the initial
Burst of happiness
Life resumed
It’s usual flawed course

The laptop crashed
Right after my decision to quit,
Has yet to be revived
And I don’t even know if my data survived!

I misplaced the picture
I’d intended for
A birthday card
And spent all night searching for it.

Several days hence
It reappeared
In a place I’d examined
Many times before!

And so the card
Will probably be late
But at least the post office
Stamped the date.

And now up to my forehead
In mounds of paper
And having swiftly, swiftly
Backed up files on my old computer

I’m so very tired
Plus, I have to make my own energy
As from the computer stimulus
I am now deprived
But that may be the best news to have arrived!
