Rain
Rain beating down
covering everything it touches
in a liquid molten way
rivulets of the liquid stuff
weave their way
down the hill
pooling
at the bottom
creating a pond in which children can play
Rain plus sunshine
a life giving pair
showers the foliage and grass
producing flowers so rare
this rain
keeps pounding down on my head
flashes of water
sprayed up from the cars
as they hydroplane in comic motion
and drizzle it's spit from their fenders
this lovely rain
a wonderful change
from the most arid of days
to the wettest of ways.
