A Sunny Rain
As sunny rain
It is wanted yet too hot
A gentle paradox
That quenches and scorches
A sunny rain
It burns still I am wet
Droplets like embers
Sizzle on my skin
A sunny rain
As loud as the calm sea
A whisper that roars
In golden-hued sheets
A sunny rain
Hidden beyond the eyes
Invisible downpour
Of light and moisture
Caught between worlds
Of fire and water
This sunny rain falls
Embracing contradictions
