Rain

Rain

Steady cadence of rain

hitting the roof

running off the shingles

drumming on the aluminum ladder

Spring day rearranged

sunshine hides deep

behind gray sky

patiently waiting

As leaf and blade

lap up life giving draughts

beauty in beads of rain

clings lustily before absorbed

Dew

Dew (18-124Z)

Crispness after a rain
air clean and clear
humidity clings to flesh

Green vibrant and alive
droplets dangle on blades grass
drooping from weight of fruit

Aroma of tree blossoms
drifts lazily in the air
still drowsy from hybernation

Morning light sparkles
natures diamond necklace
twinkles from all things damp

Saturation

Saturation 18-116Z

Smell of dirt as
 Caught in rain
   Earthen dampness hangs
     Sporadic sprinkles first
      Tantalizes nostrils
     Wind driven rain
   Yearnings aroused
  Connecting primal past
 Desire muddy and slick
Slippery passion entwine
