GenevieveA Poem by Sarah McKeever Hitt
The useless rain
the shivering of the glass against it makes the smallest noise For the time being I feel like magic still happens there must be something in the wind today Because it hasn't rained in California since I moved here. I can hear your voice telling me it's time to sleep Tor rest my brain from the hellish travels I have taken I know you are right as you always were when you here But I know you aren't anymore and I have to wait until I can thank you I hope that the storm brings you to me in my sleep tonight I miss you so very much and I want you to know that the color of life is dull sometimes But I have your whisper memories to bring the prism color back to the daytime And when I feel the tears start I am comforted to know that is when I can find you. Good night Genevieve, I will look for your face when sleep joins me Beyond the chaotic noise and trees In the kitchen where I last saw you listening to the rain and the shivering glass against it making the smallest noise feeling like magic still happens.
