IT’S THE EXCITING FIRST DAY OF A LONG-ANTICIPATED AND WELL-DESERVED VACATION IN THESE NEW-TO-ME, EXOTIC, PRISTINE, AND INVITING LANDS, so much so, that your “show me the pool, the sauna, and the windy shade” smile, forgot to first text the HSR—the deep-pocketed sponsor of your all-expense-paid trip in the first place—that you have officially arrived, checked in, dived and swam in the pool, and are now happily applying sunblock!
It’s about to be sunset
In a couple of hours…
And on the approaching horizon
Is a pretty but gray
Rain-releasing
Wide curtain of clouds…
I look straight up
Toward the precious Heavens
To see and feel for myself
The natural falling waters coming
That were evaporatedly sucked
From our planet’s
Living blue oceans
And to feel each solitary drop
Write
Its own wet personal signature
On my face and lips…
I smile…of course…
Because now I feel the first nanodrops
Which almost dance sideways
In the sweet soft wind…
My skin is naturally tickled
By the harmonic sequence
Of the wetness strewn down from above
Almost seemingly produced by a whimsical flip
Of his Almighty Wrist…
The drops are getting more potent now
And I smile more
Then I pucker my lips
Then smile again…
My lips are windshield-wiping
My teeth’s enamel
Using the purest of solvents…
Unbottleable rains…
I close my eyes
And open my mouth
And stick out my tongue
To scientifically taste this
Gravitating elixir…
The agua from above
So soothing
And so refreshing
But tasteless
Yet, I can smell its presence
It’s not a hard rain now…
It’s just one to get the dust off
The green palms and brown coconuts
And give the birds and the pink sands
An invigorating soak
Just like my clothes receive…
Now, just as the rains came
And made a statement about
Who is really in charge,
The rains now move on past us
To work its precipitating magic
On someone else, somewhere else…
TO BE CONTINUED…
May you have many…if you think the weather on Earth is
something, you should see what it’s like around the five spinning and careening
black holes, smashing suns and planets together, then swallowing everything
into nothing, and clashing like Titans in the middle of our Milky Way Galaxy!…is
long sleep a waste of time, when you’re visiting and touring romantic and beautiful,
far-away places?...I like to see the gorgeous flower petals come into full
bloom using a time-lapse camera that speeds up the process…smiles!
