Resiliency

Green eyes flourish in the Autumn. A robin dances around fallen leaves and dead seeds. Summer heat melts an early frost.

Helter-skelter world.

Bolded line is from the poem “She knows sacrifice so well” by Dakota Feirer, an Australian Indigenous poet, in honor of National Poetry Month via YeahWrite Microprose challenge!
