Remaining unwounded

I wake up to see a sky gray but untroubled
But will my day unfold, remaining unwounded?

The forecast says mild rains will come in a short while,
But will the flowers get drenched awake unwounded?

A fledgling bird shivers under a dripping leaf,
quenches its thirst, will it fly away unwounded?

I shake my mind off mangled dregs from last night’s dreams
But will my dazed senses recover unwounded?

I need to touch and hold rich testaments of joy
Will these console  my soul to remain unwounded?
