Rain

Before the rain

Expectation hangs in the air

A shadow moves across the sun

And cools the baking sand

Thirst grows acute

 

Then it rains

Petals and arms open wide

A haze drifts through the streets

And soaks the glistening leaves

Desire is quenched

 

After the rain

Relief floods over the earth

A grey sky soothes the senses

And refreshes tired minds

Life begins anew
