It pelted down from grey,
I had to wonder,
Were you hidden there,
Among the drops that splurged,
Pooling on me,
Filling all my aspects,
Seeping in,
Completion to my urge.
Did you see me
In the arid, panting,
Deserted by the floods,
A thirsty waif,
Eye of kindness,
Centred, calming, soothing
To parched you fell
From earnest plea to save.
I spied you
In the glimmer after, edging
Clouds were brighter,
Sharper than before,
Summer brought
Amid the dark descending,
A fount of love from deluge,
Dripped to core.
Did you see me dance with fervour,
Earthed to heavens,
Dust arise from feet
That stamped for rain,
Arms akimbo,
Did you feel the beating
Purged by purity
To ease dried pain.
