Rain Country (new poem)

Rain Country by Tim Kavi 

wet drops

so consuming that

they threaten

to flood you

with waves

of self deprecation

for ever

braving the elements

that you are convinced

of monsoon

qualities

until dancing in

the dirt

You realize

You are like the lush

green plants

thirsty

yet in this case

not knowing it

YOU are found

to be alive

dancing in vibrant

leafy expressions

of love

and life

until not one

moment is lost.
