Always Faithful


The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.
Isaiah 35:1

Been waiting for Spring
Again
Holding my breath for dogwood trees 
Little buds popping at the ends of upturned fingers

I was surprised when I rounded the corner
Of the house
First by petals on the ground
Then I saw

Rejoicing and blossoming all over
Rejoicing and blossoming
Like a shopping spree of pink
You are always faithful!

Thank you, God, for your not-so-subtle messengers of Spring.  Help me to not be so impatient for the warm weather, flowers, and green.  It's coming.  I know.  You are always faithful.
