Lately,
The days are short
Often dark and and cloudy.
The news is bleak
Often filled with dire predictions,
News of incredible losses,
Positive tests,
There is despair in the air.
Yet,
When the clouds part
Sunrises and sunsets are magnificent.
The weather is almost spring-like.
The barren trees appear to be awaiting,
News of vaccines arriving
Recovering patients
There is an inkling of hope it the air
Amid the despair.

Hooray for hope!
What an incredibly beautiful piece of writing. I so often feel this tension lately. Thank you for sharing!
Hope is light. In the darkness it is sometimes challenging to remember it. Thank you for a poem that gives hope.
So much life and light and wisdom. Yes, there is despair and darkness and difficulty. Thankfully we have beautiful writing like this - and, of course, one another.
