Resurgence

Jen and Dan Grady at beginning of pregnancy.
Their little girl arrived 11/12/10.

Resurgence
11/13/10

Indomitable life carries on,
babies are born daily,
brown, dry Californian soil
sprouts green with rain,
hidden seeds held dormant
turn vibrant, pulse electricity,
even as light shortens,
harvest foretells death cycle
of winter's cold grip,
for some, not others,
either way a precursor
that heralds inevitable spring,
summer, seasons continuing circle,
changing moment to moment,
not to be cursed
but embraced as adventure,
keeping us aware, attentive,
on toes, peering, wondering
what resurgence will arrive.
