Rain

 

I prayed for rain two days, naught.

To the east and west it meandered.

The field dry and dusty moisture I sought.

I thought God I must have slandered?

Then it came full on without repent.

Deluge it finally came.

Prepared I was not.

Suddenly I realized how powerful it can be.

Thankful I am but unprepared the same.

Even ants  know when to cover the entrance to the nest while I flail at a wayward fly.

Funny the the fly knows how to get attention but not whether it should.
