Passing rain
only
hints at first,
a butterfly’s wing beat
gentle on glass
building, random
yet rhythmical
in duets, trios and then choirs
singing their chorus of dreams
now insistent,
a drumming
of
fingers,
percussionists practicing paradiddles,
beat by beat by
beat
by beat
stair rods, cats and dogsfat splats on panes
vision turns molten
then an easing,
air
between
the
drops
the feeling
of freshness
silence slowly gaining
the sky,
clouds
surfing the jet stream
now the rain
has somewhere else
to
be.
