Hopeful tenets
Some post-Easter thoughts
These are my hopeful tenets
I am not a muni, not a ascetic I try to keep my train on the tracks To keep the self-flagellation to a minimum I quietly seek the copacetic To find my place on the continuum In a world that markets oversharing I keep to myself I take my own bearings I celebrate my introversion I like to entertain a thought I revel in the solitary incursion Into the why and the why not I nest in what I value I blossom in the comfort of the snug I weigh the over and the under I sometimes chase the lightning bug Forever half-full and partly sunny
