My New Poem - "Rain"


Underneath it all, in the quieting thunder,

more echo than sound,

more Now than remembering;

is a peaceful loving energy.


The cat is curled in a furry circle,

the dog rectangularly alert.

Water sings its splattering sound,

Dust is darkened, leaves glisten.




Clouds are parting, the sun returning.

Light infuses, all things brighten.

An arch of prismed color bows wide.

I am grateful for the rain.
