One world, one home...
Where wild things grow
If we're not careful
Sad or happy?
Tomorrow's now

New Life

Springtime.
The light lingers
a little longer
in the evening sky.

Springtime.
Tiny seedlings
unfold green leaves
to the sun.

Springtime:
and the blossom
is the laughter
in the trees:

for the dead of winter
is defeated.

........Lois Rock
