Rain

rain rain rain

rain everday

all the drenched greenery

rejoices

the silence sings through

the sound of rain

the rain on the roof

the rain on the machines

the rain in the firs

the rain on the roads

all the fires are here

in absentia

in the rain

it is late November and it is still

warm enough to rain

ice bergs are breaking up

drifting away from Antarctica

while poor people standing in lines

outside

waiting for a holiday handout

are not happy

with the weather

against them

they complain

or they stand silently

in the rain
