Flowers Need Rain
I read recently
this season isn’t for us;
it’s for the bears and the bees,
the birds and the trees –
to shed and to slumber,
to rest and reground.
Too much sun
and we’d be scorched and withered.
The flowers need rain and
we
need to rest.
And while some days are heavy and dark,
and while some days we are worn and weathered,
what better way to recognize
when everything we’ve numbed
begins to thaw,
when we can feel
the relief
of it all
again.
