Barren No More
once a creek of bountiful flow
though lacking the dew the evening mist too
among the countless drying away
endured in abundance
snow-craving winters
rain-thirsty springs
long parched summers
yearning in solemn unease
a cloudburst then passed her impasse
through thick innumerable trees
amid myriads of blanketing streams
soaked one by one the bone-dry leaves
each of its caressing drop in gait
eased her drought of eternal wait
