Resilience is a robin's wing,
a footprint in the sand,
a charcoal sketch drawn loosely,
with a deft touch,
lace-curtain-patterned sunlight
on the floor,
The front porch swing,
a sky of blowsy clouds,
the hand you reach for
in a surging crowd,
the weight of a tomato
on its vine.
Resilience is a garden plot,
footsteps on a gravel path,
live music at a party,
heard from outside,
a cloud of luminescent butterflies.
