A POETIC MOMENT

Raining Thoughts

Thoughts drizzle from my brain 

Like rain daunting the sun

seeking to introduce his presence

Offering promises

And I, lingering in the moment

wondering, what he had to offer

Will he wash away my pain 

and bury my yesterdays in his out-pouring? 

Or storm my mangled emotions 

hurling out hurricanes

leaving me broken in his calm

Perhaps, he'll drizzle poetry

His breath warm and fragrant like the wind

whispering in my ear

caressing my mind with liquid fingers

Telling me to forget yesterday

See only today

And water it with change.
