so hard to begin
tonite rain falls thick / humid
every drop full saturation
in to the earth
rain creates shine galore
puddles on the bottom of the power lines
puddles on the stairs by the drive way
on the adjacent property / the slough fills
to dangerous levels
don't fall in / keep small children away
ah mother's worry / /
i remember as a child sitting on the heat vent
reading archie comics / & my dad coming in the room
he was crying /he said my dad died today / i put
the comic down & resolved never to read the archic comic
again
