This from Virginia Hamilton Adair from "Ants on the Melon."
Second Coming
all the little flowers
fringing the stones
& pale as halloween
dry for a long time now
quiver in the low wind
close to the sand
hanging in there
saving their seeds
dead but not gone
waiting for the resurrection
come again someday
matter of faith
rain.
