Shining Light on the Prairie - Spring '25, too

 

I was tempted to shrug and say, just ‘cause.

Except now it’s a couple fleeting weeks later.

And in the interim, it rained.

Not enough to break the drought, it’s true.

But still.

Shining Light on the Prairie - Spring, 2025.

 

Land looking.

Finally.

Running late, the prairie is just now greening.

It deals differently with drought than shaded woods.

Caught in gentle half-light, the forest floor ripples with life.

Along the demarcation line between prairie and wood

where sun/shade sharply comingle,

at last…

spring explodes.
