Love is like Rain
By David Jomo
Getting songs you like
Is like bathing in rain
You don’t have to check
Your cheek if it still has
Foam
Every node is a raindrop
And every drop is a cell
Of blood that feeds the
Soul
And the soul has a big
Space to carry another
Soul, one that has the
Same heartbeat.
Pie,
This body is one for
Wonder, I have fallen
For you like raindrops
Like nodes in music
Like cells on souls
Olive
Oil is for anointing
Queens, but to you
Olive oil is just a
Mystery, why don’t we
Just play your favourite
In rain, and dance
And not to mind how
Dirty we will be.
