Rain Cooled

I sit perched pensive
in anxious summer flesh
as my spirit cries in dry tongue
for sustenance found in
the ebb and flow of thought
which sparks the universe
to manifest enlightening
to make cogent desires
to move clouds to storm
and sway the mightiest oak.

It is with this knowledge
in grace and gratitude,
I lift palms to all creation,
formed by divine thought.
I see the cloudburst in my mind
while my flesh falls silent
and my rain-cooled spirit speaks.

It is then I know the peace I desire is always within.

Goodness,  this is certainly one of your
finest moments.  Such a powerful and wise
exclamation of a spirit endeared with a
gift such as this poem...

And so elusive, this thing that is always within us, wanting to be found.

The recent upheaval in storm clouds
left a rainbow in you...

Welcome home my friend...

Alright! In light of the fact that you always return with such exquisite and meaningful poetry as this, you are forgiven for not pleasuring us more often with your penning!

A treasure that I would like to

Happy holiday hugs!
