Reasons to Continue
If you can survive a cold violet winter,
you can make it to summertime—
look! warm weather paws at your coat.
Barren trees will produce their sharp green
knives of life. You’ll need to be there.
In the shelter, a stray dog waits to press
a cold nose into your cold palm, sing
with praise of you.
If you continue.
Yes, the evening sun crashes down,
yes, a heart plummets with it.
Always, morning comes.
Just continue.
