Revival

Like a wilted plant needs water

and the goslings need their nest.

Like the roots require nutrients

for revival, you need rest.

Like the leaf that’s lost it’s luster

and is starving for the light.

Like the earth below the sky

needs warmth succeeding night.

Like the sea who swells

comes crashing down

and lulls herself to calm.

For revival, you need rest,

My friend, and that 

will be your balm.
