Bare patch coming to life

The barest patch may receive the seasonal bonus: This hollow in a valley near the Biedouw River had the poorest vegetation covering in its neighbourhood all year round. Until winter rain facilitated this yellow sprouting of small, annual spring flowers, it was only bare, not nothing.

The spirit shared by all that lives ensures the fight for life at all times in all places reachable and against all odds. This is the key to life, the truth that makes nature versatile. The watchful eye can spot the miracle. It is always there.
