It’s hard to believe that after today, students in our school system have only 12 days left until summer. The time crunch of finishing out this year has us all scrambling to wrap up the loose ends of one school year and pick up the new ones for next year – – I feel pulled in two different directions, but as I told my husband years ago when he couldn’t figure out why I was so moody at the beginning and end of a school year, “Circle August and May on your calendar, and remember that those are the months I’ll be slightly frustrated about most everything.”
I have a few more Centos I was working on in March that I had left unfinished and have now completed, and this one today is from Sophie Diener’s collection Someone Somewhere Maybe. I wrote this one for three dear friends who are moving on to new chapters in their lives next year, and I couldn’t be happier for them after the year they’ve had. For C, A, and S. One of the most wonderful places on earth has changed, and they are ready for better days.
Burning Bridges
I think I need to remind myself
I hope that you are happy
I will explain my anger:
a bridge that’s been burned.
