For when they happen at a riper age,
People are apt to blame the Fates, forsooth,
And wonder Providence is not more sage.

Whether his winters be eighteen or eighty,
Has won experience which is deem'd so weighty.

I thought of what my father had told me one summer day. I’d fallen down, and my knee was all scraped up and bleeding. We sat on the back porch, and he cleaned my wound and put a Band-Aid on it. The sky had cleared after a summer storm. I’d been crying, and he tried to get me to smile. “Your eyes are the color of sky. Did you know that?” I don’t know why I remembered this. Maybe it was because I knew he was telling me he loved me.

But ten minutes after that, I understood that my previous love was a puddle compared to the high seas before a storm.
