wet land     the plinking, pinging of rain at night   redounds the silence of memory's sight   the liquid essence of cloud's release   mirrors man's tears with no surcease   the dripping, plopping in pools of rain   gather together like puddles of pain   moisture gathers in morning mist   the fog of sadness's forlorn kiss   dew rests softly in the morning sun   brings no relief from midnight's run   as water flows toward the sea   a river of tears flow from me     © 2014 ajwrites57  A Long
