#43 - the rains are over us

43

12.2.20

the rains are over us

a vanishing in woods and so

see days later in the tree

you’ll say night slept here

with tricks like flowers yet

doesn’t it mark time?

arrows pointing to give heart

drowsy dozing so we are

aren’t we jamming with the rain?

so will arise a rose

sky bathed

tinkle till second third fall

leaf comes still

are days not drenched

in toil of it, a melody apart?

sometimes like a great paw spread

often shone to touch

all variations on a puddle

see where now it lies

frogsworth and splash hear tell

there’s no complete collection of

but feel the steam and rise

look up for an opening

or here’s the rain restored

smell it in forming soil yet

hear whispers of

we’re had in mind

rain’s over us

again
