The Rush...

Through the opened orifice of humanities consciousness, the whirling, whirring, rush of rain; tumults round the asphalts plane. Spritzing, spreading, shrieking, zing… the staccato sounds of wet spring; the tinkling chimes, the brass banter the clop of clogs, children canter. All the sizzle of an oiled pan. All the sparkle of dew on land. All pummeled, a peonies pain, the soundless swirl petals, drain.
