“At the end of the day, we can endure
much more than we think we can.”
Frida Kahlo
The calm before the storm
Swelling burdens begin to swarm
Life’s lease preparing to expire?
Thrusting moments forward to retire?
The end is just around the bend
Only shards of time left to spend
There’s one thing I know for sure
We rejoice our efforts if we can endure
-Eugenia

Sometimes it takes endurance, sometimes it takes humor, and then sometimes we are lucky and it just takes ignorance! Great poetry.
