While bows and waves

We must say farewell
To handshakes and high fives.

I Sing the Blues
When all the words I write confuse;
When my weak voice won’t reach the muse,
And life shows me no other hues,
I sing the blues; I sing the blues.

~Week 42: The English Madrigal~
Staying
For now, we are content to stay inside.
The troubles of the world will wax and wane,
But as each season ends, our love remains.
Sometimes the storms of early May will hide
the sun and send a sudden rush of rain.
For now, we are content to stay inside.
The troubles of the world will wax and wane.
Although we’ve had to set some plans aside,
The garden will be waiting and will gain
As all of life will strengthen by our pains.
For now, we are content to stay inside.
The troubles of the world will wax and wane,
But as each season ends, our love remains.
