In days like today,
I will pray for rain.
It can wash away
the feeling of pain
A subtle coolness of wet skin
meets the warm air surrounding me.
I can find balance from within
I also look externally.
The smell of the earth,
when the rain touches ground,
reminds me of birth.
Birth of life all around.
I taste clarity clarity on my lips,
with my mouth open to the sky.
I welcome these delicious drips,
drinking in knowledge I don't buy.
The rain is a gift
I love to recieve.
My focus can shift
to what I believe.
It is a blessing to exist.
I will not forget.
When it rains, if I may insist,
get a little wet.
