as they slowly poke
their heads above the ground -
in spring - will hold themselves
against the cold
and wind and wetness
with a stalwart sense of
pride and deep attention.
Not like the people
all around me - who
crane their necks
and wrists to view life
through their phones and
digital devices. Will we
become extinct because
we have lost our natural
relevance and connection
to all that grows with sun
and air and water? Who can
say? The snowdrops?
