Listen to poem:

Rainsticks and Drums Native Chants and Pagan Dreams

Amazon mist and rainy mornings green as the day God made them dropping from a moist sky full of even grays and sheltering light peaceful music playing from the spheres of a dense forest dream we are little humans in a big big giant cave, .... the rain Pitter patter drops on thirsty tree in a world that is evened once again sheets of rain fall from my window and I click click click and glean a slow memory of old, photographs of mom and dad inside the garden we were small and happily drinking in the scene .... the rain Sentinel watches from soldiering evergreens I lived there before the white washed walls of peace and the age old chanterelle danced as the raindrops settle in my soul, I compose a poem about downpour Petrichor scents permeate my living space as I listen to ... the rain Rainsticks and drums Native chants and Pagan dreams of old I remember Lady Gianne and her healing chants, how she lifted her face to the winds "Heal me now and make me whole" * " Bring peace and love forevermore" As nature creates pathways to equity, the rain loves US, .... the rain

nature's rain can be tender and can be violent, it can be warm and inviting, and it can be terrifying...your poem expressed its tender side...a very calming poem

The rain has a knack for falling at the wrong time in the wrong place, but we would not exist without it! Enjoyed! Aloha!
