Your words consume like fire
they rage, blow
A gathering wall
of desperate echoes
roll across the eastern sky
shadow me in darkness
Then
i will hear your cry
and it will burn
white, molten
Sear
a conscience
dipped in salt water
again
again
and again
Till i smell the earth
in all your wonder
and taste sweet drops
of forgiving rain

Robert~
There have been times that I begged for the rain ... and times I've been the rain~

This is wonderful~

shadow me in darkness
Then
i will hear your cry

Sometimes our senses need
to be shadowed, Robert,
so that we are inclined
to make the most of them...

A good read, Sir.  Thank you.
