Punxsutawney

I am not a crowbar, nor am I a shoe horn

I am a human

A flesh and blood being who evolved over the course of hundreds of thousands of years.

So I don’t need to pry, I don’t need to know all

What I need to do, and what I can do, is wait

And be patient

And be there for you when you decide it’s time for me

To welcome me into your heart’s hovel

And if you come out and see your shadow, the one that scares you back inside

I’ll just wait out this winter for your spring
