POETRY - May, 2003

FIRST PLACE

Rain Words

By Laryalee Fraser
Salmon Arm, British Columbia


From a vast blue page,
cloud sentences
slide earthward,
breaking apart as they tumble.

On syllabic toes, rain words skitter
across roads, roofs, leaves
and upturned faces,
absorbing the nuances

Of every dialect,
intent on finding the voice
that will speak them
back to the sky again.
