"We would lure rays"

TITLE: Riverside

For the flowers
that have withered
into our oceans.
For the waves
that push the debris afloat.
For the winds
that have broken our mills.
For the scars
that have made our skin a masterpiece.
For the floods
that have owned our nights.
For the plains
that have borne hurdles.
We would keep
our petals afloat.
We would dance
with the rhythm of its whisper.
We would pray green
to our orange.
We would lure
the rays to our mirror.
