silence between the rain
the blue
sky
darkens
and there
goes
one drop
(pit!)
and before the next
lies the
silence between the rain
then comes another drop
the grey concrete beneath turns
a little greyer
even greyer
(pit!)
taste from your earlobes
such is the
silence between the rain
and comes another
(pit!)
and come another two
(pit! pat!)
so the sky holds it no longer
(pit! pat! pit!)
your earlobes know the taste of rain -
a little salty, a little warm
don't you hear?
there is no
silence between the rain.
