The Tortoise and the "Hair"


I "spring forward" with the grace of a tortoise
Weighted down by my home in a shell
Never sticking my neck out, has a purpose
With one foot in heaven and six feet to hell

The "whether" gets warmer from the cold
And a lights beckons to the dark
To venture out, to become bold
But a 'net" awaits, and so the shark

Many miles have been traveled
With no time to think about "stuff"
Lots of history needs to be unraveled
And the measure of when "enough is enough"

Old is not new, so why pretend
Better of worse, no longer to decide
My shell is thicker, but, until the end
I'll bask in the sun, and keep my head inside

It seems i woke up this morning and lost an hour..And wondering if i should chase it down and get it back.
Typically a time to be "renewed" to catch up to that which has been lost.
But it seems this year is different..It's not about what i lost it's about what i can find.
In the world which now has a hard time finding the truth. It's much easier for me to find it in myself.
