In The Season of Drought

 By Ramey Channell


I grow weary of poetry

when I see the way the end will be:

a slight stuttering of the universe,

a quiet pause, then undefined eternity.

A small light,

then, uncharted night,

and a few angels wafting.

 

I grow inquisitive and loosely buoyant

when I think of angels wafting.

What they do and why they do it

is celestial and mostly mystery.

All I know 

is dig a hole, plant a seed,

and watch for miracles.
