...Springtime in the Apocalypse



Oak

Cold Winter:

a burden upon scaled limbs,
building up emotionless snow
gravitating from fingertip to toe.

these things,
forever accumulate
in the harsh winds.


Hot Summer:

bask in warm rays of hope,
quenched by cool rains;
relaxed until those arrive
with dull axe in hand.

majestic Oak,
missing the Winter;
reminding us we were alive
and strong.
