First Fool’s Thaw – 2nd April 2026

Here it comes again –
the quiet stirrings of spring.
A single wasp wakes.
But then the winds shift once more,
cold snap returns a shiver.

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

Be Wary Of What You Let In

The bustle of madness seeps into any crack
Of the bubbles that we build
The uninvited must always get pushed back
With the knowledge we have instilled
