Raindrops against the sunshine
sparkle like diamond threads
unwinding from white spools in the sky.
They unroll into pools of earth’s brown eyes
that overflow and ooze into moving rivers.
Clouds drip their last drops,
rocking little wavelets,
swaying them there in the summer puddles.
But by tonight, the land should dry,
and the eyelashes of grass
will lay themselves closed
over an ocean of shimmering glass.
Yasou! A Celebration of Life, July 2020
