Patiently Waits-Tanka

Dried up surroundings
Everything barren and dead
Under winter shroud
Yet life is alive beneath
Patiently waits to sprout forth

This is very beautiful...we do not have snow here..but everything is barren. I can hardly wait until spring when everything is colorful again. Very nicely written...Thanks for your comments..Hugs, Holly Moore
