Mud

Barren soul-desert,
neglected, parched
scabby heart
clean, dry cracks of once-mud


somehow, flowers:
still sun-hungry,
persistent roots
in search of Water


I pick up my shovel - 
the work is refreshing.


Only now
comes the sound of Rain.

  1. I hope you can feel a whole downpour of love soaking you through to your insides and turning that cracked earth into sucking, slurpy, slippery, all enveloping mud puddles that cover you head to toe :)
