The Edge
This sky pulls me
From the comfort of shelter
To stand on the edge
Of my garden.
Before me
Darkening clouds move,
as dust storms billow,
completely filled with rivers.
Darker, it comes
Bringing rain closer.
What calls out as wind,
a voice, shouting.
Nature's absolute spirit
swelling the air with drizzle, splash, flow
As I watch from the edge.

Perfect words to fit such a beautiful photo. Hope your coming week is filled with many blessings.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're posting poems again. The wind, clouds and rain have a way of pulling them out of us. (A blessing--it's actually pouring rain right now. Hoping the same for you.)
