Single hair left in my bed Remind me how the rain is shed; When in old age, do cloudy tufts Surrender from the skyey head? "No, no; the drops like rice are stuck Upright into the paddies' muck And being pulled from one hillbrow Are in another gardenbed tucked." I disagree; when clouds are blown, They hold their weight as seeds unsown. It's when we let them lie with us, The clouds, the locks of love are grown.

Single hair left in my bed Remind me how the rain is shed; When in old age, do cloudy tufts Surrender from the skyey head? "No, no; the drops like rice are stuck Upright into the paddies' muck And being pulled from one hillbrow Are in another gardenbed tucked." I disagree; when clouds are blown, They hold their weight as seeds unsown. It's when we let them lie with us, The clouds, the locks of love are grown.
