The rain came like forgiveness
to hole pocked ground
made by a million night crawlers
seeking the lifesaving dew
Soaking beneath the sieve surface
of soil to patient new roots
waiting to drink their fill
then birth their green
to the daylight

Ha! I opened my mouth, and God heard -

The weather-folk predicated less than a mosquito's proboscis chance of rain, and then only in late afternoon . . .

Go figure . . .

it's raining.
