Juxtaposition

Drought’s bowing

to the relief of rain

emerald against brown

The dying and the bursting

last spurts of greenery

against the mudbrown-black ground

Shouts of color

amber, gold fluttering

against the somber evergreen

Golden slats peeking

through the darkening

glimpses of hope in the gloaming

Teases of spring in the air

reminders that this too will pass

after the long, dark wait

The play of fire and water

juxtaposed sources of life

hinting of Your return
