A rain shower...

Your persistence led me down a different path today.

Friends, you and I,
   you knew my heart would follow.

Drenching my soul in your endless tears,
   your rivulets streamed from the heavens,
         beckoning,
      saturating my dependencies,
   dissolving       every
                resistant
   bone
                    in
                        this
             aging
                                     body.

You cry your truth.
      Your truth brings life,
and all the earth dances
      in the wake
                         of
              your
                         storm.
