there is no season as achingly temporary as now

Spoiler! :
@alliyah <3 I've been trying to figure out how to navigate how my religion comes through in my writing. Something I want to do is be more open with how it influences things I'm struggling with in life. It was definitely raw but I'm glad I shared it. And now for something completely different, today's poem. :P

Mea, I am so happy to see a poem inspired by The Good Place. I also love how your poem has inside references to the show like the "everyone carries a little bit of sadness in them." I also love how you've still made a poem that cohesively fits with the existential and frankly spiritual themes of your other poems.Those last two lines are absolutely stunning.
"A poet is, before anything else, a person who is passionately in love with language." - W.H. Auden

Spoiler! :
Mostly written on 4/18, finished 4/19. Inspired by @Arcticus' musings on landscapes.

Also @bluewaterlily thank you so much! It's always surprising to see themes that spring up even when I'm not deliberately doing a theme. And I'm glad you love the last two lines - they're my favorite lines too.

Good timber does not grow with ease,
The stronger wind, the stronger trees.

In reality, Heavenly Father is constantly raining blessings upon us. It is our fear, doubt, and sin that, like an umbrella, block these blessings from reaching us. - Dieter F. Uchtdorf

I always knew that deep down in every human heart, there is mercy and generosity. No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
— Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom
