621

rain

and so we coaxed

this cloud to stay

and do the long awaited

patience!

the weather is a long time in us

here we come again

never rote

but like us

falling for

the whole round trip

was spur of the moment

wings gather for a welcoming

and sometimes shelter in the branches

not even this is the end of the journey

but dreams evaporate

it’s the precipice addressed

as if there were each green thing calling

a temperature adjusts to

so many times around this world

it’s another planet

you have to imagine

(there all landscapes are impostors

it’s only acid falls)

amounts to a tune

could be this happens inside as well

whenever it comes

there’s a poem

… how I love dripped onto

these leaves come to us

each a world

bubble of thought

thought ages ago

each of them yet to say

at’s why tank

and tap too

tongue out to taste

the last drop

where rain is falling –

home!

it’s the same with them with us

always a brink of some kind

manna’s this model

pennies have purchase

at’s why tank

and tap too

tongue out to taste

the last drop

where rain is falling –

home!

it’s whatever heaven says

I love to listen with tin

see what a sun says after

I love to hear it fall again

that’s why tank

and tap too

tongue out to taste

the last drop

where rain is falling –

home!
