Heavenly Dew Poem by Zyw Zywa

Heavenly Dew



When people pray, they pray
for rains of righteousness
dewing from the high heavens

that quench their desire
and redeem their souls
in the midst of life

from which they suffer
reaching for an angel
of comfort and encouragement

a helping hand
even if it can only help
to help others together

and to greet the flowers
that shoot up where it was not possible
and to greet the flowers
that shoot up where it was not possible
