before the rains
I till the dry soil
beads of sweat fall
~~~
after the rains
a green shoot pokes its head
through the dry cracks
~~~
between my toes
fresh mud squishes
earth renewed

My favorite is the middle one, that is always so interesting to see. Just when you think nothing live should be at that spot. 🙂 Nature in its element!
