Un-Beware the Ides

x

It’s Wednesday

Ides of June

Somewhere in the day

There’s a needle moment

That separates

The first half

Of thirty days

From the other

What we’ve had

From what happens next

x

Every month

Has an ides

It’s the one from March

That’s famous

At any rate,

Here we are

Halfway

And I can hope

And do

That whatever the first

Half of June

Brought for you

That the second part

Is good,

Even delightful

Brimmed with hope

Spiced with pleasure

Itself the present moment

That’s what matters

Yet become a second hope

As a sign of things

To come

Maybe into the next month

With its ides

x

Or shall I say

May I say,

Happy the

Rest of June

x

Fondly for

Family, friends,

And strangers,

Christopher
