A Glimpse of May
Driving,
I spot the Queen of May—
roses bursting
in reckless bloom.
For a second,
my tired heart stirs.
Life is heavy,
moment to moment.
But small things
keep reviving me.
This life is mine.
No one else to blame.
So I walk,
quietly,
gratefully,
into each new day.
I love this life—
because it's mine.
