Leafless trees survive another season
Upright and steadfast after a vicious thunderstorm
Continually absorbing nutrients from the soil
Utilizing air from atmosphere
After a slight rise in temperature
Sprout beautiful flowers and lush green leaves
Colors abound, heralding the advent of spring
The air is easy to breathe
The appearance of spring is a natural resurrection
Humans witness rebirth all around them
This event offers hope
Hope to those who can be positive, forgiving and
expectant of good today and tomorrow
To be happy with less and yet be open to claim their abundance.
