'To Give Painless Light' – A Selection of Poems by LJS

Poem 4: House of Rain

come now
leave your house of rain
walk now
we are in time
talk now
the trees will listen
smile now
the squirrel enquires
laugh now
the hedgehog clowns
cry now
the rabbit broken in snare
gentle now
the young deer in his eye
quickly now
the fox is running
rest now
watch the rainbow dragonfly
wing his way
into your dreams.
