Lent

fasting and prayer
seems out of sync
with warmth and sun
re-emerging from
dreary winter clouds -

lent, now, is penance,
denial of self, or
morose introspections ~
yet once, lent was
spring - time for

growth, new life.
how do fasting & new life
cohabitate? can penance
& growth mingle? or does
each require the other?
