Some Poems

[Nerdanel]

Rain catcher

I can't seem to
catch my thoughts they are
falling down a spiral,
lifted by a tornado

Landing in soil, like seed
germinating at first,
only to explode into a forest:

Dense, diverse, dripping,

Full of life and I see
how lucky I am,
surrounded –
embraced by this beauty,

By you.

Your confession started this
wind that took my mind;

Your fall for me and
our mutual understanding and
the love from those we've chosen to love
– a network of all I ever wanted:

Rational thinking,
understanding,
and feelings, abundant as the rain

In a forest.
