i love the rain

our garden grows best with the kiss of wet
seeds rise green with liquidities
i love movies of snow(from a screening distance)
up close,it is cold,wet and inconvenient
i love sunshine(so long as it is not TOO hot)
(drought bakes bones and adds skin cancers)
long ago,realized that living between preferences
is perhaps the best we can wish for-
that even moderation in excess cloys and curdles
that taste is an acquired taste,and changes as we change
that RIGHT and WRONG are often contextual
and we violate someone else's moralities just by being here
So i rejoice in rain and heat,wet and cold
seek comfort where we can,and shelter in the possibilities of change
(for the better,that is..according to our current prevailing prejudices
and that is sweet ,according to me,on sunday april 11,2010
what do YOU feel? what do YOU think?your poetry?
