Life endures

~Sun ~
bloated and fed,
Having eaten and taken        
burns all away        

The pond has dried up        
the toads burrowed deep        
All life seems to wait        

Pregnant        

is the pond a belly
bursting with life?          

Will those rains ever come
      and
fill the pond again        

The sounds fill the air        
Trailing like thoughts      
insinuating themselves
      deep in her bowels        

bursting with life
        Theirs          ~
