Notes About The Poem

Prayers Answered

a rainbow appeared
marking the long drought's ending
song from the treetops

awakening blooms
in heart arresting colors
summer's turning gold

greenest gratitude
rising again from our knees
sunflower sun shines

There is nothing more cheerful than a field of them, I think. :D

Flowers do indeed have a thirsty lust for life after a drought, and birds sing with extra cheer, this is lovely, Evelyn . . . : )
