Rain, the more Rain - Jan. 31, 2023

yuuuuuuck


but when the first

ray of sun breaks through

everything glistens


the first bird song

so cheerful and fresh


the earth’s fragrance

a tea of all it sweetest parts


air so crisp and pure

it burns in giant gulps


my attitude’s also showered

and now dries in the warmth

of a thick yellow light


and I will say this


nature sure has

a contagious smile
