(Pic from Magpie Tales)
It’s like going,
going far away.
It’s like flying,
flying
higher.
and finally it’s like pouring,
pouring out, inside out, absolutely;
to drip through the leaves, to melt to the soil,
and to get disperse, absolutely.
That’s how I want to soak
to soak, to soak in rain---
you know the story?
every story, each story,
of tears, of love and
hopes that rained over earth over decades,
that’s how I want to soak,
to soak, to know
to know the pristine silence
that still booms amidst all chaos
and it’s like going far away, flying higher
and pouring down
and soaking
absolutely
in rain,
living in each drop.
