Do I recognize the number?

Is it identified?

Unknown remains unanswered.

Long distance only if I call them.

Scammers will not leave messages.

Usually.

So now I just have to remember to check the voice mail more often.

Tragedy strikes.

Whether quickly

or seen in advance.

Neither are welcome.

Do you, can you move on?

Only time will see how resilient you are.

Sometimes Tragedies are simply Comedies not yet explored.

The future holds many possibilities.

Our imagination can take us there.

Technology is advancing.

Everyone is a number.

Take a seat and fly away today.

The internet is full of videos.

Kittens and Puppies being discovered

In situations unbearable.

People caring for them.

New homes found.

Animals that are loved

Make many happy.

It wasn’t a true vacation.

We never left the house.

Work still happened.

Life went on.

We were just in our own bubble.

Limited to the walls surrounding us.

Now to conquer the fears

Of returning to reality.

The weather is warming up.

People are seen more outside.

Friends greeting each other.

Neighbours waving Hello.

Animals prowling their territory.

The birds protesting.

The dogs insisting on their walks.

City life becomes more alive.

The greys of winter turn slowly green.

The brain processes happiness once again.

When the great fall

due to enemies from within.

I never understood

Why it was so selfish to think of yourself

When all you ever did

Was everything for everyone else.

Telling the world

You have problems

Doesn’t make you weak.

It makes you stronger

For those around you

See you as you truly are.

Human.

It is sad

To see someone lose to the struggle

Fought so bitterly inside.

I only wish

People also see

What that does for them

When the Great Fall

So that they can rise.

Too excited to sleep.

Thoughts jumble and turn

As the body resists the temptation

To relax.

The night will be a long one.

The coming dawn

Proves the day will be even longer.

An argument gone wrong.

The voices raised sound angry.

The neighbours are upset.

I hope all turns out okay.

Also listening in, not to be a busybody,

but in case I need to call the police.

Thankfully, most of my neighbours

are reasonable.

But we are all human

and humans have emotions

and sometimes those emotions

get the better of us.

The thermometer moves.

Colder.

Warmer.

Put it down.

It is freezing.

Go outside!

Who pays the bills?

Up it goes!

I was comfortable.

Put on a sweater!

I’m putting tape over the thermostat!
