Water Dreams

Water fills my dreams
these days,
trickles, puddles and streams,
rainfall, dewdrops, leaky faucets.
Sometimes I dream
great torrents of water
are rushing past me, around me,
licking at me feet.
I taste ocean spray in my sleep,
I stand with arms thrown open
and face turned toward Heaven
safe in the midst of a force
that mows down trees and
swallows houses.
I hear your name
in the pulse of the water
and in my veins
and this sustains me
this is enough.
