In the past,
as disaster rained down.
I stood alone.
Full of hunger,
and waiting for answers.
But nothing came my way.
Not even a few lotus buds of hope.
It seemed that nature
had made her choice.
There was nothing I could do.
Then, drawn into your presence.
A new landscape emerged.
Full of life and beauty.
Even in the rain and
the scorched earth.
There was a new world.
​Released in a skyward mist
and embraced by the sun.
Earth, sun and water.
The beginning of a new passion.
