After Rain — Bet Briggs

Copyright

 
Once more
small precious gems
on thirsting stems
restore
the vital strain
that floods through vein
of stem and leaf,
pursue the thief
which wore
the petal's blush
away, to crush
the core
of its delight.
Oh, that rain might,
to this bare field
my heart, so yield
its store
and heart regain
its vital strain
once more.
