Being Prepared

Like the blossoms of spring
Sprung from their sheath
Hope and excitement
Promises of the new year
But by this time
Only one month in
We’ve reneged on the deal
We struck with ourselves
The plans for a fresh start
Possibilities lying beneath
The weight of finances
Responsibilities and struggles
Weeds taken over
Our dreamed garden of delight
But that which is buried
Is planted for time
And when we least expect it
The surprise will break ground
Have faith in the unseen growth
In the magic
That the Universe hides
Look out for the lessons
You need to learn while
The best is prepared
For you to enjoy
