O gentle rain
soak my earth,
allow my roots
to drink of thee
growing plump and strong.
O gentle rain
soak my leaves,
wash off Winter
to unleash these leaves
binding my strength.
O gentle rain
soak my buds,
aid my vibrancy
to enlighten the landscape
bringing life where there is none.
O gentle rain
soak myself,
rid me of silence
to breathe the air
refreshing these stale lungs.
