Unceasing rain!
night long hammeringly
loud
until you blow by me --
sometimes the sky
brightens close to land but not
for long
enough to go out! I’m awash
in rain! Across
the gulch & onto the green
roof, I can't
hear myself! Your water
has filled the pond
beyond its banks to the tree
trunks, wading
for life.
Water. Water!
