Local Weather

Michael Anthony

 

The weatherman tells us yet again,

about a stubborn high-pressure ridge

keeping the reluctant showers away.

 

She always worries about the rain.

Will it be too cold to stand in?

And, of course, will it ever come again?

 

She wonders aloud to me,

with apprehensive humor,

“Why can’t we find a way

to move the pressure ridge

out into space so the rain can be free

to do as it should?”

 

Her challenge is how I know

we will be okay together,

because I’ve found someone

whose heart I can’t get out of my head.
