I am reminded again that life is always out the other side. Sometimes it*s the slight green from a few drops of rain. Sometimes it*s a friend who closes the blinds so I can see, weep my own few tears, find the hint of green on the other side.
Yesterday brought
Those few drops of rain,
Enough to bring the bare reminder
Of green
To the lawn.
The weather is out of whack
For late June.
The hints of life
Require a search
Through Colorado wildfires,
Early hurricanes
In the Gulf.
Yesterday I sat with a friend.
He closed the blinds
So I could see
Through my few tears,
Through
To the ever-present reminder
Of green.
