I wept for all the loss tonight. 

And all those hearts, 

Thirsty, to make sense of it all.

It started to rain then, cool drops

Falling, on warm desert sand.  

One seemingly dark cloud,

Hugging, my mud brick shelter.

I beheld the sun’s descent

Surrendering, to the mouth 

Of mountains, like paintings.

A bird with grey wings,

Perched on a juniper;

In her company,

We witnessed an ascent of angels. 

I will be intimate tonight, 

With both loss and light.
