Last night's rain

By Renton de Alwis

I heard you fall
drops on my rooftop
no thunder heard, just you
felt a cold wind blow,
touch my hand...

Heard you thump the windowpane 

thought earthworm thoughts
with eyes closed deep
I know I'd like the scent you bring
falling on this parched land...

Make that seed bloom and grow

seize sailing seas, give life
give hope, stay on and fall
in thin drizzle, to greet
a new morn's dawn ...
