Wilma Neels Poet Cinquain

'water'

Water gushed over parched land
fractures are slowly filled left by drought 

terrain humidified by cold water 
pouring down replacing warmth
everything ice-covered

Water 
set in ice form
fluffy and breathtaking 
an impish sting to its beauty
arctic

my clothes are drenched 
twirl around with outstretched arms
tears are forgotten
