MAY DAY

5/1/2020

 
Twisty trees for me
during these tricksy times
We sigh
that April showers mean
May flowers
and perhaps...
our cough is just that?
Allergies?
The bends and boughs won't break
won't fall
we'll catch 
nothing at all
because Bublé sang
"It's a new dawn
It's a new day"

a mayday, mayday
like no other
​With hope
We praise this day
She is awake! Hallelujah!
We feel the sun's rays
through the clouds
Say it loud:
April is over!
2020, our longest year
When fear reigned
When contagion spread
And we knew little, except for dread
but that fed the science
to move swift
We shifted gears and
sent medics to New York
Set up tents, canceled events
and sheltered in place
That haste
led to art and impacted decisions
on all fronts
so that weeks
felt like months (or maybe years)
But today we look forward
through the glass...and have to ask
May we have a fresh start
