Today
is the day
and
I am afraid
nothing
will come of it
but
I have felt
that way
before
and
expect it to pass.
Did not sleep
well
got up early
told the cats
immediately
the time had come
but
they didn’t seem
to understand.
I am no hero
never have been
just
a stubborn man
tenacious
holding fast to
real things
sometimes
only I could see
until
at last
they materialized
to
considerable disbelief
a relief
to say
I told you so
after
working in the dark
for years
to get the proof
I was not wrong.
The rain
has stopped
the day is
warm
there is light
everywhere
and while
no one knows
how long
this will last
today
is the day
that has
finally come.
