| Early morning |
“Praying for Rain”
After months of prayers
and a bit of spiritual cajoling,
the rains finally arrived
last night in torrents,
gushing off the roof
and through the open sky
and dropping delicious comfort
to the dry earth that has waited
too long for natural moisture from the sky.
This morning, our walk was different,
something about a freshness floating
through the early morning air
after a rain that cleanses the muck
that hangs clandestinely in the air each day.
We breathed deeply as we stepped out
into the new day, a fresh day, knowing
a cleansing had occurred last night,
as the heavens opened, now inviting us
to breathe deeply and happily,
recognizing prayers work over time.
