Spring Type CLEAN

Spring Cleaning

For those who have been keeping up with this blog, thank you. I've been working hard on some upcoming projects that have been keeping me pretty busy. In fact there is also an update to my performances if you want to know where I'll be next. Here's a poem that better describes what I have been up to rather than any long writing can explain.

Spring has always been for cleaning
For airing out the house from stale winter air that suffocates
With memories of a often harsh winter that has let the darkness creep into corners
Settled with depression like dust that covers windowsills in need of a feather duster
Coming away from him has been my spring cleaning
Of learning what fresh air feels like again
Of letting in the light and showing me just how dirty I've allowed my house to get
And relishing in the clean
Enjoying the breeze of spring rain
Blooming simultaneously with the flowers
Discovering love again
Enjoying peace
Allowing time to heal
To pause in the day and enjoy the current moment
Not forgetting or disengaging
Charging in the sun
Becoming a blaze for the summer
Wielding a humid heat that will make blind ears wish for Fall again
To wish for a autumn shower to stop the shimmering hot
And they will find no relief
There is no ignoring truth anymore
