Life returned, in our little garden
the little nurtured space
by our back door,
Fenced and planted
the bulbs in the soil
waiting for the snow to melt
for the sun to warm the ground
but life returned, in its fullness
when life giving water came
raining down on the parched earth
loosening the soil, nourishing
the tender shoots,
letting them live,
letting them grow
So it is with us,
we need good soil,
and sunlight;
but we need living water
to live in fullness
