Laura Mckenzie Poet Lyric

Catch the Rain

These days must come
Late winter rains
Foggy misty plains
Cold droplets falling from afar 
Puddles between the grass and tar 
Dampness that reaches into your bones
Before me the moss covered stones
Their tale, their story
Brought from the quarry
Lazily creeping changes
In our space in time
But, in a lifetime-
 of nature
Quite smooth, changes
And now too, will come the strangers
that tucked themselves behind their shades
During those long gray days 
Awaken from the daze 
Ready to spout 
For now the quiet will pass 
As there voices will surpass 
Their loud rumbling lawn mowers 
and those ever so annoying leaf blowers 
So we shall endure these soggy days 
And raise
