I Saw Montpelier Rain Today

I saw Montpelier rain today A dense white forest up to the sky Coming loudly from far away And the land lie naked that was dry Its breasts stiff as mountain peaks Its lips like sultry ponds bared to teeth And the roof that of heaven leaks Shuddered and spilled in soggy sheet. And when he was gone, the birds sang Green as fresh grass, the sun kissed The trees soft skin, and blossoms hang Naked, embracing the replenishing mist. I saw it all as God’s purpose, for his name I stared inspired, and felt no speck of shame
