Like a wild flower waiting for rain

Like a river bank thirsty to be touched by pitchers

Like dawn, longing for light

Wants/needs a moment to take a breath.

 

And like a house

Like a house which is ruined/destroyed without a woman/(wife)

Likewise, the tired man of our times

Wants/needs a moment to sleep/rest

On the arms of peace/serenity/tranquillity.
