Rain can be such a problem when your main passion in life relies on sunshine
WHO COLORED THE RAIN?
February 4, 2008

Who colored the rain a
hard
cold gray that
cements the
winds and grass together
and pulls
pasterns
out of
paddocks like weeds
from the garden?
Who colored the rain so
lonely
and bleak there's
nothing to do--
but weep?
Who colored the rain a
sinking
ship where dirt
once thrived
when the air was dry?
I guess we shouldn't forget
Who colored the rain also
colored the sun.
