Raindrop Within

As I lie upon the grass The cold hard ground beneath I look up to the cloudy sky And the the crow perched high above Pearly raindrops begin to fall But I shall not make a move For let it fall unto my face And cleanse my very soul It chills me to the bones And sweeps out my pounding heart Clear my brain of selfish thoughts Make me a crystal person Let me be the wholeness And beauty in each drop Coat the world with new life Give it what it needs And when the rain has slowed Come almost completely to a stop I look up to the cloudy sky The cold hard ground beneath And the crow perched high above Looks at me and I see That we all with hold a raindrop Deep inside ourselves I feel it now within me It's beauty is so pure And I look to the now empty tree Each branch coated with drops of rain As I lie upon the grass

I see there has been a lot of inspiration floating around the last couple of days. So many new poems and some poets who have not been here in awhile are again home at the Soup. I am enjoying reading all your poetry today. Thank you Jen. I hope you all enjoy your day and find more inspiration. Love, Carol
