Solo
Today the sun has hidden
Its warmth in the foggy mist
A clever way to fool humans
And creatures that it is going to rain
Humidity rises but still it’s gray
And dry a nonessential creation
The trees leaves are inverted
Waiting for showers of water
To no avail the skies are dry
The flowers petals are closed
Begging for an eruption
A drop of water
To wet them and
Feed the soil
Birds are searching for
Drinking pools and puddles
To bathe and wet their beaks
Mouths open and dry
Still the skies remain dry
