Hope

River bed carcass
dried out by mother summer,
leaves wither to brown
as the clouds wane thin,
and the drought rolls overhead
though in all the death
there is always hope
from hope blossoms succulents
which turns death to life,
nothing to something
as pigface spreads like a new dawn
so with life spreading,
and death retreating
rain starts to fall like glitter.
