Holiday Rain

Traffic is slow.
In the drizzle
the holiday crowd complain and grizzle.

Magpies and currawongs are carolling.

The morning is silvery now.
A heavy sky bends down,
dropping diamonds 
wetly on the ground.

Mounds and hills will grow emerald grasses.
Rain sings the treasure of life as it passes.
