March 23, Late and still Light out.

The smell of rain reminds
Too much of times past
Times when it also rained
And I was also sad.

So the sun relieves.
In a wash of light and warmth,
Denies me the sad memory
With involuntary smiles all the more pleasant
For their spontaneity.

Except when wind ruffles the sun-soaked air,
Disruptive rushes of cold to which
I find myself so vulnerable.
