A High Rain
Yesterday was hot, it nailed its peeling skin to a desiccated air. This morning, rain is falling, but it has yet to land - a weightbearing sky creaks though it does not break. Above straining clouds a dam has broken, perhaps the deluge will crush all before it, but not yet, earth’s frying pan is lit and smoldering. The wilting dawn cannot wash its face, bedsheets smell...

Premium Member Rain, and the Body Remembers
The body remembers… What the mind politely forgets. How rain once meant survival How cold once meant fear How being held... Was once the only god that mattered. ...

Go summer, come autumn
Days too long for the sun to bite still hard, All trees bring forth leaves that are mostly green, Different hues are what summer fails to preen, With grace, yet with force, summer's hands bombard. Rain may catch even the prepared off guard, Its runoff sweeps paved roads fresh, clear and clean, Its grains and pebbles make the oceans glean, Yet...

The Wanderer
There is a place he knows of rest it is a place in wooded mist and days of wandering in sorrow ways his broken heart returns this day she's waiting weeping by the door and cries his name her silent call her voice of whispers through tower of tree's like soft cloud leaves upon the breeze there's gentle rain on steps through out but...

Potholes In My Heart
The scent of wet Earth rises a ghost from beneath the lavish bungalow. and above the high-end ceilings and chandeliers which never flicker. Nostalgia trickles down like sweat Glimpses of plastic buckets catching rain and our salty tears flood the eyes. Flashbacks strike like lightning remembering the only toy- an abandoned kite I tried to fly in rain dampens my spirit. Loud wails roar like thunder hearing the...

African Rain
It falls with grace. Metallic bawls hail the strength of zinc roofs. At the mercy of the thatch, Drops drip from needle points of skeletal Palm fronds. Particles of rain descend on thresholds Among dewed terrains. The petrichor befriends the atmosphere, Caressing limpid warmth with floating cold. Lightning, a white dancing Anaconda, races with speed, Filling the tenebrous plains with lights of hope. Troubled skies ululate...

The Things I Never Buried
I never buried certain names, They lingered like a scent in air. I whispered them through window panes And found them waiting everywhere. I never buried childhood roads— The ones I walked with bleeding knees. They live inside the softest odes And bloom like ghosts among the trees. I never buried what she said The night the silence broke our bed. Her voice still echoes...

there’s something dreary about a terrasse drenched in rain can’t help but take it personally like a missed invitation to an afternoon drink with friends or a cancelled party a dull hush lacks warmth too early or too late no one at the rendez-vous no welcoming sunshine stood up by the host a final rinse the rain lets up the earth on pause before the sun breaks through and sets...

The Quiet Things That Saved Me
I was saved by quiet things— The rustle of the morning breeze, The way the robin spreads its wings, The golden drift of autumn leaves. I was saved by threads of light That touched my skin through broken blinds, By distant stars that pierced the night, By echoes I had left behind. I was saved by falling rain— The softest tears the sky could...
