After the recent heavy rains,
our feet carry us up the road.
Heat and moist wet air
layer our arms, our cheeks.
Every breeze a blessing
of evaporation. Every patch
of shade beneath a roadside tree
a kiss of cool. Let us admire
the cattails in full bronzed
cylindrical flower rising
out of hidden waters that sing
like a brook in the roadside ditch.

“Every breeze a blessing.” Yes, thank you for the sweet reminders.
