Rain poem


The sky pours love
hushing the earth
mother and baby.

Cords of water,
stethoscope-thick, dark
as any grey was ever dark.

The rainstorm says what it has always said:
unhide your head; unhide your head.

  1. This is from Love and Zen in the Outer Hebrides by Kevin MacNeil
    The lash of a harsh
    Lewis rain. Endless moor
    And God’s loneliness
    or
    rain falling
    especially
    on me
