Sonnet: Pause

Has stopped the music, keeping each in place
And silences of recesses arise
Pastoral past proposing to our eyes
An easeful pause and human kind of pace
Where sun and shadow on the landscape trace
A subtle tempo as our lives revise
To figure what is now a worthy prize
And bear and bobcat challenge center space.
This quiet we uneasily embrace
And dire circumstances temporize
Anticipated outcomes theorize
The while savings dwindling apace,
But hear the hammer pound the nail --- proof
Of life and said serenity goes poof.
