the rain and Report 7

the rain is falling
on a sunny day
like mist to the eyes of the trees,
the branches sigh
through the film of tears
as each droplet shimmers in the light.

above, the clouds roll
in a blurred line of grey
but part around white sun and blue sky;
the rain is falling
like snow, or like roses,
it leaves us with the pace of a snowshoe crab.
