RAIN

The gentle rain

slips through my window

and the poem springs forth

from the depths of the past

It dances on the vine leaves

and is lost in a bubble

and nestles in your arms

like in a dove’s nest

fragile, in love.

that never expects

the coup de grâce

of the immutable huntress

my verse stops dreaming

and slips through my window again
