RAIN IN A TIME OF VIRUS

There's rain in the desert,

A sudden abundance of rain sweeping away 

(perhaps)

The Virus debris in its path.

For nearly a year now we have lived

Hidden away like lepers,

Longing to play.

I go out in the rain and laugh and

My little dogs follow,

Laughing too.

We are joyful, and

For the moment, we are

Restored.
