The Droughtless
The Droughtless - heavily floats
past my window, obscuring all
but the foghorn tweets of wings.
Contrast the sweet songbirds,
sky-blue and linguistic-red,
with doldrum skies non-speak.
O angel-child’s cherubic cheeks -
vocalist mouth riveting
as a full moon; starless night.
Zoom in; warm colors of harbor -
teal, vanilla and bittersweet!
my eyelashes obscure panes.
Sow drumbeat rain, xanthous-free
screening of a moodless Winter;
endless pounding of water-seas.
Zoom out; shout for Spring -
reap eye-popping perennials,
daffodil-sky, pink-dewdrop posies.
