After the Rain

When sudden rainfall gushes here A wharf’s landing dampens its floor… Outside, inky cloudscapes appear Like horse shadows crashing the shore. Greater the pour as debris floats , Adrift through mist and teeming spray While voyagers in painted boats-- Consider moorings a dismay. Until gale considers to leave As sunshine pours a hued beam Enhancing the glitter of eve As pilgrims land safely, upstream. Robert Haigh’s Challenge— 3/11/2018
