Purity

Last night it rained,
tears falling from the clouds
leaving a cool sweat upon
the quiet black street.

Sometime in the night,
the heavy drops were soothed
by the honest flakes, that
kissed the olive trees.

I awoke to a world,
White and pure, wounds now
cleansed, silver blankets
hugging the land.

It wasn't persistant,
Soft clumps, slip and slide
from rooftops and trees,
purity melts in your hands.
