Little anxieties
28 March 2021
It’s now warm enough in the mornings
well, some mornings
to sit on the porch of this tiny house
overlooking the tiny mountains above the tiny town
this morning began with hot coffee – cream and just a little sugar
crows and rain
and a sweater – the earth still chilly
there’s a difference between getting caught in the rain
and starting out in it
that’s the logic we employ when deciding to migrate outside our comforts
the rain slows
a tap tap tap from from the water retreating from house to ground
song birds replace crows and
the skies try to lighten, maybe a little
but the clouds seem too thick
the rain will begin again
