rain.jpg (4289 bytes)

It rained last night, once again

Wetness spreading over the flowers

They drink in the sweetness, relishing the taste

Trying to satiate their thirst from waiting in the sun so long

The blossoms open up seizing the moment

Only to be thrashed by the downpour

It is delightful and painful at the same time

The flowers had forgotten how quenching the rain is

And how agonizing the wait for it to come again.
