shards

Swirling bowed arms hold inside the Rain's hypnotic rhythm... ssshhh....listen...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hold me in my arms & kiss my tears

I feel as tho I'm one with Sister Rain

Her tiny toes paint sheets of carnival glass

I see my eyes abouncin' in her smile

 

I hold Her in my arms and kiss the tears

I weep to know my Sister grins in pain.

Tiny shards, carnival laughter, infant toes,

Echo, tumble, down falling darkened towers
