Parched and wanting, I search out the aquifer My soul longs for a drenching, let it wash over I reach out to accept itsβ comfort I want to immerse myself in the glorious flood It envelops me in warmth and placates me Soothes my muscles, and settles my heart The calming flow sluices over me, cleansing my spirit It relieves the stress of day to day life My wrinkled skin cries out to absorb it, To be caressed by it, at one with the flow Pour it on, the stream never gets cold The rapture and glory, never grows stale or is wasted Itβs love, of course, I wish would rain on me so readily May I never again be in a barren wasteland without a drop to behold
