forest grove

Published 2024-02-17

Sun
beats 
down.
Bright light;
slights night.
Depart the
wilderness;
desert waste.
Return to the
valley;
forest grove.
Then let the rains fall and cool the scorched soul.

From Above

ribbon white
filtered light
standing in the sun
with blue green grass
through shimmered glass
commanding my childish gaze

and clouds gather
and rains fall
and winds blow
and lightning
     strikes
          nearby
with flashing bright
burning light
piercing through the sky

leavened soil
and farmer's toil
a seedling stretching deep
want of bread
and covered bed
masking cosmic needs

and clouds gather
and winds blow
and blow
and blow
     and blow
with farmer's toil
to his spoil
when heaven shuts its gates
