Winter Rain
Time is long;
wants are too;
needs don’t
even figure.
One question mark
mocks;
makes;
all this busted beauty.
Flash a light
on every quandary;
look deeply at each
nickel-colored sky.
Unfurl one perfect
imperfection;
send it skyward;
ask for everything.
Thunder out
the blackness
of tree-bark
drenched in rain.
