Soft rain ...

The rain has stopped -

Raindrops fall from the apples on the tree -

I remembered the wet hillside above the ocean -

The seals garlanded with kelp -

Berny O'Shea lighting the turf fire -

Our young bones like green branches -

Berny looking out the small window -

Tis a soft rain he'd said -
