t-minus eight days
till spring, and we have grudgingly
sprung forward, waiting
for an end to this nonsense –
let there always be more light

and here is the hour
and here is the hour
you withheld from yourself last
winter in order
to enjoy it today – delayed
gratification hooey

somewhere between the
somewhere between the
past and the future lies the
first day of spring, wound
up and tucked so gingerly
in time, waiting to be sprung

on day two, it felt
on day two, it felt
like the messiest of all
vacations, waking
up in a different place to
call home, unpacking, unpacking

losing an hour in
losing an hour in
the middle of the night is
unlike losing an
hour in the middle of laughing,
of making music, of waking

** in the absence of The Daily Post from WordPress, here’s your daily prompt: waking
of all the hours
of all the hours
visible to humans,
occasionally,
we will let slip
an extra hour,
unseen, yet felt
dancing within the
joyful layers
between
you and me

it’s 4:10 a.m.,
it’s 4:10 a.m.,
and vivienne doesn’t like
the end of daylight
savings and everything her
tiny body knows about
the way we force time
to flex arbitrarily.
her lungs are still puncturing
the darkness of 5:10 a.m.
as we practice wading
backwards through the
minutes until someone
can pick her up
from her cradle,
rock the additional
hour soothingly
into a new slumber

sunday morning, we
on sunday, we
on sunday, we
agreed to save the
extra hour, slice
it up into minutes,
and use it only
for replaying the
best moments. by
the afternoon, i
had asked for
ten, and you,
twenty, and we
worked on the
remainder as if
it were our
favorite word
problem to solve
