postcard revised ~
I wish you could have seen
the rain. Falling like popcorn
down
down
splat upon the ground.
So many days here without rain
had every gardner wishing. Soil so dry
a gallon of water made no difference.
Pavement was frying like griddle
cakes to toes and feet.
Yes my friend, crack an egg.
In the humid morning mist
air would suck up every drop of water
making our Smokey Mountains
look even smokier.
No one could breath
for the air was dry
as sand. Gritty and muggy
instead of giving us air
it would take your breath.
I had told friends, neighbors
and colleagues alike. I need rain.
I need to feel it run down
over and through me. My body
aches ... for rain.
When it finally began to fall
I was driving home from work.
I swear I pulled over
jumped out
and just stood there
letting it soak me
through and through.
Still, I stood. Grateful
and so humbled.
I sincerely wish
you could have been here ...
