Dry Spell


Some not so dusty 
Plodders not so wet 
Behind the ears as you 
Say you can smell the rain 
Approaching if you’d just stop 
Long enough to unclog your nostrils.

  1. from here
    I can smell the lemon trees
    and the coming rain .... I like it best
    when it drums on my roof .... when I
    in my seventy-third year think of her
    in a wet dress running up to the square

    ( "approaching / approach" is a nice word .... a "gate" that swings my mind
    in-and-out comings-and-goings ?

  2. I
    like that evocative
    image of her
    approaching wet
    to the skin
