It’s a rear view mirror no one wants to look
or even give a quick glance
as we recall this past year
365 days

I’ve loved the play
R E N T
ever since it’s come out
and have seen it already a half a dozen times
and won’t tell you
how many times
I’ve watched the movie
or just listened endlessly to the
Soundtrack
but this is the song
especially this past year
that’s kept boomeranging back to me
at different times
when I’ve searched for my
p l a c e (s)
in an ever unfurling
NEW NORMAL
Where we’ve searched
tried to find
how we can be all things to all people
while trying to figure out who we are

YOUR TAKEAWAY
over these past
525600 minutes. . .
Seriously
in these shake-up-the-snow-globe-world
we’re living in
have you measured these
525600 moments
in daylights, in sunsets,
in midnights or cups of coffee,
in inches, in miles,
in laughter or strife
or LOVE. . .
Here’s hoping they continue to be measured
in Love
(The Only Season that Matters)
