Ahh for the words. (Wycheproof August 2017)
Ahh for the words.
Walking in the rain
Is not a thing,
You can capture in facebook,
Or photogragh,
Or hold in a movie.
The gentle, cool rain
Falling on skin,
Rattling on corrugated, weathered steel.
The smooth, grey dusk light;
The pale yellow street lights;
The fresh country smell
Of wet on bitumen;
And the sound of grain trucks surfing through town;
The puddles gleaming silver;
Refresh me,
And gentle my heart with joy and with calm.
G J Bannon
