BRING A SINGLE RAIN
Bring a single rain
cling to her soul
wheat flowed
with whitened
bountiful
world
SURVIVED OVER THERE
Survived
over there
after
towards
before me
lit on—
ever-present
no— end
song
IN ARMS OF RAIN
In arms of rain
angle steps
draw
near
candles night
ripples
we—
circle on snow
we sing
NEVER I WOULD HAVE KNOWN
Never I would have known
Iron brass
feathers
will blossom over and over
our faces soul, land
hands and dreams
people of people
with streaming
river
silent pray
among you and you
ODE TO YOUTH AND OLD AGE
Keep
I hold & paint through
dark
desert
in
hummingbird
you
touch
renew
my sun
