Water gushes from my throat
down my chin
down my shirt
and slowly makes its way
to my toes
I’m drenched in water
A pigeon landed on my shoulder
with a leaf in its mouth
It waited til the earth shook
Then flew away
My life is just beginning now
it will never be the same

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.

The allusion to the ark was done well. It’s nice to say so much using few lines.
