Now I sit in this house with Mozart

and the sounds of traffic, a steady rain,

the feel of an impending storm

that tightens the stomach.

Still, there is something to be said for the music,

for the secret knowledge that the weather will change

and we will give a standing ovation to tomorrow.

from a poem by Emily Lewis Penn (1953-)
