Dragon Tears

 

Written on July 22, 2015, for the April 6 entry of 366 Days of Poetry, this piece is about clouds.

 

Seen as the rain from clouded skies,

the teardrops fall from dragon’s eyes.

The teardrops fall from the clouds o’erhead,

the clouds that form the dragon’s bed.

The clouds that form the dragon’s bed,

on lofty pallets spin their way,

bring rain relief, and dragon’s tears,

provide shade for us on too-bright days,

provide shade for us, but don’t protect

from rays that burn our skin to shreds,

so that outdoors must we be aware of, and fear,

sun-ray, false shadow, and dragon’s tear.
