Rain falls blind














Rain falls blind on ground already wet;
weeping drops scatter, sightless,
among the soil-grains.

An insistent east wind 
shakes the world awake, as if sleep 
were more than the work of night.

Sunlight behind cloud waits for change;
wounded grey opens like a mouth
speaking of better days.

Throughout the seasons, the elements dictate mood and tone. Rain, wind, cloud and sun; eyes, sight (or not), sleep, the earth, future.

What else?
