Ground soggy, asphalt
slick as trees and shrubs
wear crinoline petticoats
to show off the vegetation
and we wonder where
all of the water will go,
but water does what
water does, seeking its own
level, then burgeoning above
barriers made by God
and man, and only
God knows when it will
end, when summer will
begin, and when we will
regret wishing
the rain would end,
because when the rain ends
the drought begins.
