How much water can the sky hold?
\nSo much is falling down!
\nThe ocean bed is dry.
\nNew hills rise covered with coral.
\nThere are little pools
\nwhere the last starfish live,
\ndisappearing before nightfall.
\nAll the bright jewels of the sea
\ncovered with salt,
\nunquenchable thirst.<\/p>\n
Rain will fall for years,
\nturn to snow,
\nruin all the sunsets,
\ndawn,
\nbecome a dark river
\nof old songs and rags,
\nand the sun,
\na summer love that never returns.<\/p>\n
I will walk through the pools,
\npull my umbrella down,
\nwatch my feet
\nslosh in the water,
\nhear the sea fall
\nin broken waves,
\nand wonder where the color goes
\nthat opens up
\nthe curtain of the sky.
\nIt is raining so hard!<\/p>\n
I want to go and hold up my arms,
\ndissolve in the rain,
\nbecome a part
\nof an eternal storm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
