Tin Ear


Wake up— 

The music the rain 
Makes as it falls 
On the tin 

Roof’s music you’d have 
To be snoring standing up 
Under it not to hear.

  2. Sure, Conrad—last I heard, Silliman’s in the UK on his way to Burns’ homeland, so maybe some of Robbie’s liquid music will soak him to his skin.

    Thanks, Nin—dare I say your comment is music to my ears? :)
