He is There for Me [Tanka Poem]

OmegaOS

The Gay Robot
The hot wind from afar
Sings and laughs for the willow
Gently sweating leaves
I watched how he sat down there
Under the willow for me.

Raindrops fall till dawn
Scattering the world’s colours
To cleanse the bleak streets
He opened his umbrella
And smiled at me with hope.

Snowflakes danced in winds
While darkness ate fields
Of virgin flowers
The lantern swung in the air
As he shined the light to me.

Distant sea sparkles
Like diamonds in the water
Where the sea birds chirp
He held my hand and led me
Through the banks of sands to shades.

When the waves tremble
To the cry of a war hawk
The battleships yell
But he held them all back
With chains and ropes to bind them.

Chandeliers of stars
Hang below a nebula,
A pond of crimson
He held my shoulder and said,
“I’m here for you, remember.”
