Be the cloud that honors rain, darkling soul
outstretched in blue sky. The last sight was seen

and last air breathed before lifting high above
rooms with startling lights. They touched you,

caring; faculties brought fruitless to bear
when clearly you might have pardoned them,

so clear were you were already gone.
Drama unfolds by the body; the haze

of trauma hangs near like the settle of gentle dust.
Turn distracted into the stretch, feel your effortless

growth into something much wider than life. You pass
unencumbered through walls and windows, become

an infusion with sky and clouds. There are seductions
made as the sky enthralls with a voice like siren song.

A simple rush makes you part of the firmament.
Among the white, grey, and black, all are particulate

matter, softest of very soft. They collect but do not abrade,
so full of love is their promise to teach you everything.

They teach ways of parting to admit the sun, skills that form
portraits to enliven the sky. They lend understanding to feelings

of perfect fullness, that one may give without overwhelming.
Learn it all, that you may escape days of lashing rain

and your lightning soul return to the earth again.
