Transcendental Sonnet #1211:
Rhythm in the Rain

for Silke

A curtain of rain all around me
Falls and would seem my isolation
But through this curtain I see clearly
Within my heart's imagination
As by a shape-shifting telescope
You as you look back across at me
Across the sea and it gives me hope

Water and water as far as we
Can see but I know you see me there
As I see you here as we wait where
Two hearts through this curtain one can be
And have been as are now forever
One heartbeat which no force could ever
Separate... this pulse of you and me
