1/18 Poem of the Month
                                Crescendo

I sit here, suit pants, no shirt, no socks or shoes,

I am waiting for the crescendo…

It is obvious by my apparel it was not today.

The day started out fine: sunny and warm and blue,

If I had to choose, today would be a crescendo day,

But here I sit…

I keep hoping each day that something big will happen,

Yet they all seem to run together, mundane sets the pace…

I am however always waiting for that crescendo…

I have though, a very real and formidable fear:

When a day does bring the crescendo…

Will it be the beginning or the end?
