A Meditative Walk

A hailstorm in mid-afternoon?*

So, our spring has come too soon

Battering sweet roadside flowers

Brought low, alas, by drastic showers!

 

Of course, we know life ‘springs’ surprises

And although the tree sap rises

Promising leaf growth anew,

We still have puddles to wade through!

 

Angst flies the flag in desert states;

Who rules the roost and now dictates?

Drones, once bees, now pose a threat

Ships stand still in bottleneck…

 

Will hand of Tarot cards reveal

The future in some much-sought deal?

The daily news makes us distraught:

For peace of mind – I take a walk!
