Resurrected Easter Lily

The Easter lily thrown away in the backyard, only to spring to life as my mother begins her journey of passing. Falls Church, Virginia.  Monday, 23 June 2014.

The Easter lily thrown away in the backyard, only to spring to life as my mother begins her journey of passing. Falls Church, Virginia. Monday, 23 June 2014.

What was thrown away

Has burst forth with brilliant life

To give joy and hope.

Obama Volunteer

Donald Prather on election night 2012 at OFA Reno headquarters. Donald volunteered more than a year 10, 20, 30 hours a week for the president’s campaign.

Long hours, many months

Unpaid to rebuild justice

In a hard nation.

Voting day sunrise

Warms our working together

As we hope for good.

Change

Waiting to inhale.

Hours and days tick slowly;

Corner bending sight.

Birthday

Reno, Nevada – Monday, 26 March 2012

In Winter I know

Hope stays buried in cold wind:

But daffodils bud.

Five Days until

Waiting to exhale

Because it’s harder to breathe

When turning fifty.

Early March

Sierra snowstorm

Hides hope beyond the whiteout

While I dream of Spring.

December Darkness

Slowly silently

One foot trudges the other

Must be light ahead
