Insistent prayers morph into poem when stress strikes eyes that glimpse relief in rainbow-contoured light.

In silence, I abandon shallow for subterranean inhales of aromatic haven.

This frequency, a vibration range heard only by the longtime aggrieved

who grasp dreams to moisten desert throats with its secluded sweet water

and caress mountain summits with naught but naked soul.
