forget the rain
walking down your street of dreams
stumble on a manhole cover
trip and nearly fall into a puddle
all that you have seen and heard
becomes the very part of you
never wanting to leave
until the sun breaks over the sea
until the first birds of morning
renew their urgent calling
wake now softly
forget the rains of yesterday
the storm clouds have broken away
today's renaissance
a new chance, dancing
your thoughts of why
like a stone skipping across the ocean.
