D'Etre Raisins

No sour grapes these,

rather the withered sweetness
of seasons lengthened
to aged fruition
chewed introspectively.

When humanity comes of age

Hunkering down before the golden hour ends as they say on radiowaves Canada: the need for the young and all to stay home, for the young to keep their grandparent's safe before shelter-where-you-are is declared after the golden hour ends. More will live the more the young and all stay home sooner.
Survive together no virus in the home, memories to celebrate when pandemic death passes and the peoples of this land see how many of us survived; see how golden we were in the Games of Pandemic.
I am optimistic Canada, my love for our old Dominion, my growing distrust of Canadian values now at the crossroads, our place in all this, with our wobbly charter of rights and freedoms facing the fact that the Earth itself just changed itself in our faces; got our attention because we and especially the young and their young have worked to do when this passes, when all is just beginning to be said and done anew, they will emerge to create what is coming, chains of events will break effervescent on beachheads as common sense and best practices, carve a new epoch on the lathe of earth's turnings,shaping the epoch of humanity's coming of age as a mutually beneficial lifeform and giving it to the Earth as a token of finally understanding.
