Parody of Reckoning- 1945
When the dust settles,
there will be rainbows once more
the geese will fly north in great
clouds
that darken the sky with anticipation
Mothers will cut fresh green onions
from gardens as wide as their
streets
Rain will baptize the drought
And new storms will grow
and grow
and grow
until we are under the trees
gazing up in wonder at how
something formerly so small
can change into everything.
