The whisper of my tears

The whisper of my tears
over the clamor of the rain,
freezes my stifling pain
into tiny, salty misty-spheres.

I look at the wailing sky --
appear rainbows of hope,
     desire, and power to cope
at the corner of my eye.

My face they embrace
and fears they leaven,
with tears from heaven
     in a ground-bound race.
