Art by Nanami Rio
Rain as metaphor
Again and again
As science
When arid conditions set in
Cyclical, seasonal, a reprieve
Rain as meteorology
The amounts we'll receive
Rain as memory
Each drop that plops
A soul is fed,
A moment stops
Rain as mischief-maker
Rain as home-taker
The dark sky,
The fresh scent
From heaven,
Earth bent
Rain as history
before the rebirth
Rain in abundance
From our dance in the dearth

Heard this today...
Where I come from, rain is good
'Cause rain makes corn
And corn makes whiskey
Whiskey makes her/him a little frisky
Hah! Can't claim the words as my own...
