The bee was forbidden from kissing flowers.

Out of the hive, she found her free will. Though
her wings fluttered under heavy turbulence.

Amazed, by the liberty that flowers held in petals, all around
She began to work on arousing subjects, in the playground.

Irises, roses, fuchsias and sunflowers.
Purple, red, pink and yellow- for endless hours.

Her mouth met many lips, sensing negative charges
She finally understood that natural energy was harmless.

Satiated, by her existential discoveries in The Garden
She returned to the tall trees to receive her pardon.

But along the path home she was surrounded.
The colours melted and mixed into grey and brown.

Unable to control the velocity to self-discovery,
Wary droplets of perfume sprayed in cries.
It was then she found her guise,
Judged by those who told lies,
Reached into her abdomen and prised,
No fail-safe to catch her from the skies.

Rain on my brain
In the sane plain
Of my framed pain
Pouring down on the pane
Of my window
Again

There’s something majestic about where water meets rains

As body of water seemingly warmer than that of your own

As if the worlds fishbowl had been turned upside-down on a playing card

Where the warm is cold and cold is the air

And all I want to be is in and beneath

The broken, shining surface of this rippling world

Not quiet, not callous, not alone
Where Rain Meets Water
