i stood in the rubble of the mimosas trees today

laughing so hard i'm crying

as they burn and crumble and smolder

i never believed

there would be life here

ever again

but through my tears

i see a little bud

of something green

piercing the earth

beneath my feet

so

in absolute awe

i stand back

and watch it grow

leaning into the daylight

and think to myself

"perhaps i'll do the same"
