Rain's Precursor

Rain's precursor a cloud's rehearsal slivers of ariel fluff stretch towards the bottom of us cleansing the way Maytag advertised it The way John might've done at the riverside. Rain that goes way down making daddy proud with its spiritual side effects The way toddlers' toes dry in Play-Doo making the perfect ashtray. Rain replenishes earth the way ink rejuvenates the soul. Inhaling Mary's smoke, watching clouds float, wondering how amazing it must've been when Noah's revelation kicked in. Even the greatest engineering feats began on a whim or the voice of God perhaps it was a woman's whisper, or a daddy telling his little girl the world is hers. Eternal Embrace holding on, when, Clouds form
