You and I
You came and just swayed my mind
The way the cloud of Nor'wester takes over the sky.
The way the earth is shaken by the whirlwind,
And the downpour washes away all that come by.
Like a mere existence in that flow, fully entwined,
Dancing on your tune in a complete submission, there was I.
Even after you are gone, you remain...
Like the dominance of storm felt in bowed down world
Like the lush green fields scream after the rain,
And the melody of dripping water entices a heart unfurled,
Like an ecstatic heart's dreams, the field is filled with grains.
In the joy of harvest, the blooming hopes swirled.
