Splash, Tink -A Poem
Watching the rain fall
Splash, tink, sprinkle, squish
Clouds gray as gravel lurking overhead
Rumbling thunder rolls through her body
Damp breeze chills his neck
Cracks and flashes of lightning
Tangle across the sky
Rain drizzles into currents puddles
ripples floods drips drops runs falls
dancing, gliding, spraying, frightening,
On the earth, the sea, and all
Today it lulls him to sleep,
Tonight it taps to her dreams,
Whispering secrets to keep
in the feathers of the pillow seams.
Their worlds are miles apart
But they sing the same song
They have but one heart
And their love only grows strong,
Though they're far away
They meet each other's needs
Together again someday
So they can just, BE.
