                                               impulse rain
                                            magical thinking
                                             a perspective
                                           fragile and porous
                                         fundamental elements

Anne-Lise, you make a magical connection between a brief shower and how we might think of our world around us. Moments like ideas can be fleeting and almost escape your consciousness. Your poetry exists on a deep level! Smiles and thanks!!!
