I Don't Suppose Raindrops by Jewel Kilcher

I don't suppose raindrops
will ever replace
the sound of small feet

nor sunflowers
their tiny crowns

All the dust has gathered itself
and settled on
your heart
and there is no correct combination

no key

no question

that will deliver them
once more
to your side

for she has already decided:
no answers will
be given



I love Jewel's poetry. Her music has always been some of my favorites even from when I was young. I'm sure her music helped inspire my own poetry.
