Creating Rainfall

Wisps of thought, strands of time
Moments of snow that spill sublime
Gales of pride, breezes that blush
Crossing paths in a clouded mind

Trembling snowflake, confident hail
A frozen tear where thought derails
From slippery tongue and flurry wit
Vapours of guilt shall haste entail

Temperate design, tropical scheme
Escape spontaneity with watery sheen
Sentiments crystallised, affections stored
What might it be but a torrent of dreams?

Showers of wrath, drizzles of love
A deluge of judgment from the heavens above
Behold - the rainbows of imagination!
Hope the prism, faith the dove

Every cloud a silver lining
Every sun a golden crown
Every sky precipitating
The lands, they thirst for what comes down

Creating Sunshine

you summon tinder
midnight tendrils approach
a coil of parched broken wood
meek and beset in gloom
power and life encased
usurped and dethroned
bolt shut by wind and rain
that paints your skin
your departed hide
a parasitic white
twitches and flakes like falling talc
chilblained limbs
clutch air claw flesh caressed by icy blades
your work is judged
the sky an eye
you stare back
its pupil a chasm
you grip your flint
black and insurgent
the gales contend to
lacerate your knife
and you strike
metal against stone
a dazzle of spark and cinder
a lustrous display of orange and white peacock feathers
an explosion of hope and life
