Geranium sanguineum after the rain.
|
cool from rain with
pockets of sun warm.
Thick with moisture, redolent
of rose and mock orange.
Slices and dribbles of shade, alternate
with blinding light glancing off
water drops, petals, leaves.
Brilliant white and deepest blue overhead, as
the last storm wanders away,
behemoths in the sky grinding and grumbling
to the black horizon.
The earth is green, soil breathing, birds
singing, life explodes until
the next storm,
not far away...

| Passing Storms, West Central Alberta
mounds of water vapour,
piled high like solids,
confusing our soil bound senses
flying far above us
fast and unreachable
home of gods and conveyance of mages
reminding us of our smallness
till ethereal turns substantial
and theoretical water
becomes a firm fact
crashing down in a great act of unification:
heaven and earth one
