Worthy

The rain pools outside my window
Not so much a pool as a
Rushing current, raging.
In one ear and out the other,
A cascading waterfall in your
Honor.
The earth swallows the rain
Greedily, a lazy green giant
Calms the seas, controls the wind
Then treats himself, he is
Worthy.
Worthy is you in a word, or
Is it?
My heart swells in the rushing river
Your face winks in
My mind's eye
A cacophonous swell, rapid
Pounding in my ears.
You turn away, the giant quiets
The storm.
Rain trickles down
Follows me into the
Bottomless pool.
