Turning Around

Days
Like today
Make me feel
Like life
Might be turning
Around

Not for me

For others

Brother becomes Captain

Same day that his love was promoted
Niece is noticeably happier
Family is overall more relaxed

And I’m happy too

About the yellow phlox
That just got planted
On my rock wall

I think

If these things
Bloom in spring
Fall over the wall
Like I see them doing everywhere else

Like they’ve never done
For me
No matter
How many times
I’ve planted them before

I just might

Fall over
Too

At so many

Impossible things happening
All at once
