Miracle of Miracles

 

Miracle of miracles
the sun returns,  grows
green  leaves on bare trees
and up the dead stalk of a rose

Blossoms push through rocky soil,
tender shoots pierce clods of earth,
relentless as the snows of winter
 hiding nature’s plans for birth

Miracle of miracles
stem
seeks
sun,
soars
toward
sky,
grows
with
warmth
as
life
seeks
Light
