Raining.

Raining,
grayed out sky hanging low
getting clean
bathing the earth.

A full sky
of windy drops drip
splashing down cleansings
through newness.

Sprinkled in dew
the thread from spiders
bursts open brightly
as if treasure chests hung like silk
from limbs and twigs of the canopy
flinging open the recesses
of lush greenery.

Here,
more than waterfalls
bounce to and from
the moon.

It is as if
only the wet trees
know.
for poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7

"Hear me, my chiefs!
I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."

    i wrote it @ school today while sitting on the toilet.
    do not eat school chili.
    it was horrible, just a terrible time.
    kinda painful actually.

    but i somehow produced a poem of sorts.
    i don't understand it.

  • "courtyard"

    you in the morning tree
    you were a flying bird
    but you sat for time
    that stood still as the morning air

    you seemed to me
    to be in love with me
    in a mourning tree
    see the leaves mourn for me...

    liked the way you used "morning" and "mourning"
