Resolutions in a time of Covid

Today I held a conversation
I saw myself, in the mirror
What a surprise
I am older than I remembered
I need some salad days
Crisp green goodness
Dressed up for dinner
Sweet and tart on the tongue
I'll move my limbs, run up steps
Romp up hills
Wait till I am out of breath
Stop for valley views
Breathe the crisp fresh air
Feel the hopeful rush of Spring
Glory in the curling clouds
Spread my fingers to the rain
The pent up hugs
The laughter shared
The scent of human
All waiting
