finally we have rain
damp wet gentle steady drippy rain
the kind that gets everything wet
but somehow you're happy to be out in
the kind that quietly soaks through the soil
not washes it away
the kind that makes the swallows sit on the gate and yawn
whilst watching for moths dodging the drops
the kind that eventually makes kids
come indoors and watch old movies
the stuff that makes puddles
not floods
the stuff that shorts and wellies
were invented for
the type of rain that refills our pond
and freshens our sun tired skin
the type of rain we welcome for a day or so
punctuation
between the summer sunshine
