Golden Shovel No. 04

“The sky is blue, or the rain falls with its spills of pearl.” 

from “Spring” by Mary Oliver

My Golden Shovel poem #4:

The Big The 

up in the sky

all that is

beyond the blue

need for rain

and water falls

we did it with 

what’s inside its

true nature spills 

turning all of 

our pains to pearl
