CLEANSING RAIN

Green grass growing wild and free

tangles of blades woven together

like a blanket wrapping the earth

cold and wet between my wrinkled toes

grey clouds overhead flash menacingly

a brewing storm lingering in the sky

a calming sensation filling me whole

droplets of rain fall majestically

each one a cleansing shower
staring in awe at this beautiful beast

as it rolls overhead like a grey wave

Closing my eyes the rain drips on my brow

I listen contently as the rain sounds like a tattoo

rhythmically dripping as it fills the puddles

staining the concrete dark

Dozens of blotches run together

forming like little lakes

the little lakes become little oceans

little oceans bordering the lush green grass

a tiny coastline stretching along the footpath
