Poem: Forsythia


Forsythia


Yes, it has rained for a week,
a long, indeterminate gray
that can dull the heart

seeming as if the sun
is held forever captive,
until you see

how God takes the misery
of cold March rain
and brings us... spring.

The picture was taken outside my office in Washington DC, just this afternoon. You can click on it for a larger version. Kind of a contrast with the previous post, huh?
