Rebirth

Vast wasteland
is this barren field
      
     forsaken
     friendless
     isolated
        empty

silent as an abandoned
home
nothing stirs or 
roams

bleak and buried.
Even the rocks
cry out 
for fellowship.
Perhaps music from the dry parched wind.

Somewhere
in this lorn lonely place
a tiny seed
struggles
amid the
stagnation
wishing to bud-

full beautiful bloom

in its own 
small way
a humble 
beginning 
to perhaps a promised
rebirth to a forgotten field.
