Catching the Rain

Cool,cool rain
           washes us
we are renewed
Let the minions of night
fly from our consciousness
  A newer world 
               awaits us
let us wait
         here in this world of illusion
for those who 
              taste violet
   through the prism 
of eternity
Our way station on the
   way to the beyond
is just beyond our reach
   let us hurry now
and we'll enjoy
     a new reality
   which knows no regrets
On stardust lanes
             we'll travel
seeking that
       which we must 
experience in the morning
when the bright sun
                brings life-giving warmth
     to earthly flower and fauna
