NATURE'S DANCE AT MY WINDOW

Tears rolled hesitantly, large drops

that left its lofty confines and broke free

gravitating willingly, towards hilltops

The earth waited patiently, tickled

by a rumour that teased the grass playfully

whispering discreetly, while it giggled

The artist painted freely, a wet brush

smudging the details of a journey

mixing obscurity, into the grey blush

The rain fell continually, cold shower

waking the somnolent lake affectionately

shaking dormancy, gripped in its power

And as it started quietly, so it disappeared

Leaving behind wet kisses clinging delicately

glancing above furtively to a sky now cleared

Suspended was I sedately, watching mist

creep in through my window seductively

enveloping completely, the present dismissed
