In thought and therefore mind present
In memoriam, with respect
Living, gone; more, survived or died
Courage of all, each unified
Joined: hip to wide calamity
Thick of worldwide humanity
Beneath universal conflict
Under protected influence

Make your time for it
There is place for it
Solitude . . . that
provocative space
relation so rare
often on blast, but
underrated . . . more,
underestimated,
‘unnatural’ to those
deprived of their self:
Crises of identity
group-think mockery
menace to spirit
of autonomy,
self-sufficiency.
Such treatment bolsters
beings’ dependence.
Such contingency
puts at greater risk
life and liberty.
Springtime – contrast to time’s fate
Renewal, as to wake from sleep
Seasonal savior’s advance offers
Temporary exultation
Warmed earth under sun’s
Limbering heat blooms not disposition
But senses that we’re present
Revitalizing our functions
To each seasonal rebirth belongs
Advent: new life, more time . . . blooms
In accord to context and care
Nature and nurture hold sway
