Welcome March, Come In
by Emily Dickinson
 
Dear March-Come in How glad I am- I hoped for you before-Put down your Hat-You must have walked-How out of Breath you are-Dear March, how are you, and the Rest-Did you leave Nature well-Oh March, Come right upstairs with me-I have so much to tell-I got your Letter, and the Birds-The Maples never knew that you were coming-I declare - how Red their Faces grew-But March, forgive me-And all those Hills you left for me to Hue-There was no Purple suitable-You took it all with you-Who knocks? That April-Lock the Door-I will not be pursued-He stayed away a Year to call When I am occupied-But trifles look so trivial As soon as you have come That blame is just as dear as Praise And Praise as mere as Blame-

The Way It Is
by William Stafford
There's a thread you follow. It goes among things that change. But it doesn't change. People wonder about what you are pursuing. You have to explain about the thread. But it is hard for others to see. While you hold it you can't get lost. Tragedies happen; people get hurt or die; and you suffer and get old. Nothing you do can stop time's unfolding. You don't ever let go of the thread.

Mike crossed the West Virginia border into Younkin-land this past weekend. It's a good thing our virtual boundaries are infinite, cuz the Mikey may have been snagged by a state that never fully escaped the Confederacy. For those remaining in WV, prepare yourselves for repeated invites from the state government to emigrate ASAP.
