we winter in hope

By Kat Myrman

we winter in hope

when the last leaf has fallen
and the blue, crisp and clear, is revealed
behind a tangled web of exposed branches
we can cling to the promise of spring
buds of hope waiting to bloom anew

  Perfect gogyohka for our election results as well. Those last three lines nailed it for me. Brilliant. ❤

    Thank you Colleen. I’m so glad you caught that. I tried really hard to not be obvious. 😉 What a week it has been!
