Tears Swell

In my dream the darkness came

the tears inside began to swell

I found myself by a wishing well

sorrow has more than one name

 

from the east a crow appeared

messenger from the sky-world

overhead dark clouds swirled

in mists of grey he disappeared

 

sipping from the waters of life

leaves cling in the misty dew

visions in a sky of violet blue

spirits awaken to drum & fife

 

come to me, oh morning, bright

on restless limbs, autumn nears

nature is swiftly shifting gears

who will guide our dreams to light

 

in my dream the darkness came

who will guide our dreams to light

Shed a tear...



"Rain" by Lev Razumovsky.




















 
In the watershed
she stores hope for the future
in wooden buckets filled to the rim
with salted tears that fell from the sky...

If you asked her how many or why
she would  simply  sigh & reply
"too many"

she dances in the rain barefoot
water  drenching her skin
filling every pore...collecting
raindrops...with each beat of her
heart...holding dreams close to
her breast  for fear they might
slip away...

if you asked her again how many or why
she would simply sigh & reply
"as many as it takes"

In the watershed
she stores hope for the future
when the river runs dry and the
land &  her people  are thirsty
she will open the door
and give them a drink
filling  their cup to the rim

who is she I do not know
but, I wish her well
