    Poem Commentary

    Written for my little girl.

    For Raina....

     

    My daughter,

    My love for you is as elemental

    as a monsoon.

    As uncontrollable as the lightning.

    And as loud as rolling thunder.

     

    And just as clouds shower

    the scorched earth with cooling rains.

    My tears ease the drought

    within my empty soul.

    When I think of you

    and remember.

    That you are so many miles away.

    I miss you every day...
