amphibious nature
winter has struck
water has invaded
city streets deluged
gutters are rivers
shiny leaves float
on sidewalk brick
yellows and reds
gleam of day
puddles at corners
wind-wrecked umbrellas
like broken wings
of skin-soaked creatures
awnings leak cascades
open crossroads beckon
with square waterfalls
from murky clouds
get thee home
says raspy throat
my feet obey
through urban canyons
hallelujah! a bus
no granted fact
haul me homeward
through stubborn downpour
rain gives way
to lightened sky
return to dry
sated earth sings
