Response
In the tempest’s wrath
I longed for
a glimmer of hope
in the heat of July
I seek the tanned
smooth body of the woman
and the north wind said
find your path
in your ancestors footsteps
lean and reverently lift
the marble over their gravesite
to feel their warmth
and I asked the southwest wind
where is my sunshine
and it said
it hides
in your heart
