Rain Light
Rain, rain
falling rain
sending light
through my brain-
through the day
through the night
through the frame
that gives me height.
Sunlit day
and moonlit night-
stars and planets
shed their light
in brightness
and in whiteness bold
handing on
what ancients told.
Rain, rain
falling rain
sending light
through my brain-
like a bird
that sings a song
in words that rhyme
and linger long.
All is calm....
I hear the throng
of falling rain-
I cannot claim
nor hide
my own in pride
but share it
universal, wide.
