April Showers

A constant drumming, never letting u forget
Of sunny days & life behold
Within the confines of the little shelter
Braving life as it weathers by

A music only built on the drops
By those with unfathomable strength
A deep wisdom that twinkles in the wise
Of a silent understanding of the deprived.

As I patiently wait, the storm withering by
I learn the little secrets of my cocooned life
In all its charm, a world unlike
Very easy to move in but a difficult flight

A life not for me, chains cannot en-spirit
As my soul cries out for freedom & the blue
Holding back from maniacal bounds
Is only from dark histories within.

Boundaries defined, a mind weakened astray
Games of life, of death he plays
The warmth of hope is all one has
A smile on your face & the spark alight

Fly over mountains & deep blue seas
Inside crevices & beyond depths of the clouds
To play on the treetops & swing my hands free
As I run along the shoreline, away from constant reprieve.

The green cover after a wet spell,
As the parched earth gives out its intoxicating smell
A world opened new, beautiful it always was
Waiting a while for these eyes to open wide…
