The night rain
Comes down

In waves that wash
Over the trees
Along a darkened road

It drums
On the roofs
A sudden stampede
Pours in streams
Cascading from the eaves

One wonders in silence
Where the sparrows hide
And what he would find
When he went back inside

It seems
You’re in bed
Still sleeping like a child

And then
Just beyond the balcony
A bolt of lightning
Cuts across the sky

you stir up his night and sleep
by sweetening his dream
