drops of water
land on my shoulders,
before looking up
my heart hopes for rain.
�
before a wish can be made,
trickles of�droplets�
run down my cheek
as I stroll down the street,
others pick up their pace
and head for the trains.
�
my heartbeat thumps
to the rhythm of the rain dancing.
a smile forms
at the feel of water
refreshing my skin.
the regrets of the day
are washed.
�
I close my eyes and reminisce
of my love affair with water:
a�worriless child laughing
at the roaring open hydrant.
a school girl singing under the sprinkles.
a blissful teen taking her first
bubble bath.
a dreamy-eyed grrrl kissed in the rain.
�
every drop carrying memories
of hurt and hope.
reminding and cleansing
�
nothing like a good watering.
