Life, Part Two
My Journey Through Oregon and California
Everything living
vibrant with color
accented by sunlight.
Low mountains
blue in the distance
stand steady and firm.
Silent song
Immovable stance
Telling a story
filling their role in the scene
glorifying the God who cast them.
Scattered trees
outline the country
with bushy green.
An assurance that seeds are unfurling
Below
stretching to burst forth and
taste
the sun shining and water falling.
Sun's warm rays
early in the morning
glint off the tin roofs of storehouses
empty now
promise that work and faith will be rewarded.
Rows of irrigators
Dependable
suppliers of water
waiting to do the work
for which they were chosen.
Vineyards
now in the cool shadow of the mountain
keenly aware that heat will come
and with it
water.
Worms
tunnel beneath the soil
making it rich and fertile
making air possible
living also off the good they do for others.
All a promise
of Life.
