Raindrops & Clouds & Snow
Raindrops
Let the raindrops fall
On my face
And cleanse
My wounds
Let the raindrops land
On my tongue
And dance
On my skin
Let the raindrops submerge
The pain
And release
The inner peace
Let the raindrops soak
Me in bliss
And bless
Me with ecstasy
Because now
I’m drenched
Drenched and free
Clouds
Swirl my mind into cotton candy
Lift my heart like a feathered swan
Flow in rhythm to my pulse at peace
Let my eyelids droop
Wandering in the wisps of white
A space is never-ending
Let me loosen every bone
And rest my hands in ease
I fall into dreams I can’t recall
They’re silky, smooth, opaque
Sifting through my thoughts at once
My head entranced in space
Let me stay here for eternity
With my eyelids closed and joyed
This is where I love to dwell:
Unseen by humans
And free
Snow
Ever so gently,
The snowflake
Descends on my palm.
How come it
F
A
L
L
S
When it seems like it should
Ascend towards the clouds
Glisten in the light
Rise past the sky
Disappear with the birds.
I stare at my palm.
My palm feels numb.
My fingertips
F
R
O
Z
E
N
With content.
Let me frolic in this
Ethereal snow globe
Where my body is shivering
And my mind is
F
R
E
E
At last.
