I listen to the rain's soft music

on preludes of notes over deeper night

on south

refreshing the veniam air
which kisses the
zenith of my
sideral heart

your hands besiege aprioristic
my wax body
slow painting with
drops of rain
my skin:
water flowers
pink snowflakes
purple butterflies

you take the rain
dressing me queen
waiting
the solstice kiss

and the silence of the breath
