Jacaranda Tree |
Sitting on porches |
Since Friday while the sky |
Tilts like a watery glass |
We wait for downpours |
A drenching joy |
A carnival sky |
But what I don’t say |
What I can’t say |
Is that with this joy |
Comes a mourning |
Something left behind |
Blue lined, teary |
Mingled |
I move on |
All things will change |
We wait for the rain |
And the promise remains |
Live life fully |
Peeking through fingers |
Slung in our hammocks |
Cocooned |
Skimming the water |
Trapezed above time |
We glide like slingshot angels |
Belly up and |
Floating we see |
The promise in the sky |
Up to Orion’s ribs |
We climb this tree |
And listen |
For our pulse |
All things will change |
We wait for the rain |
And the promise remains |
I flung loosely |
Into that world |
I stayed heavily |
I’ll be a Jacaranda Tree |
In Indiana |
I say |
Green-housed and sung to |
I pray light will |
Leak from out pockets |
We’ll be drenched, overcome |
At night the fireflies |
Streamers at our sides |
Silent flaming arcs of hope |
All things will change |
We wait for the rain |
And the promise remains |
