Chain
into a puddle
 She melted 
   awaiting key lime
 pie tin
at the base
lyrically
  lilting
   laughter 
 like so many drops
trickled down 
   blurp
    & 
     glurp 
  dribbled down
 the rain chain
    copper
  proper the
   ebb and flow
of a new
  life’s
   beginning
 in the pelting
rain he still
 advances the search 
   food for thought
  denied a soulful 
connective
  tissue
    starving at the fringes 
   irrationality imposing 
 a clarity of 
mired thought 
  exercises
    in you
   makes me smile
 like the drops wending 
  down the rain chain

This has so many layers...the more time I spend with it...another one reveals itself. I am smiling.

ReplyDeleteI like the image of the rain chain, and the food images might have inspired me to go make a lemon merangue pie.
