monsoon rain

[waterpoor]

monsoon rain

gray thunder,
wrapped on the tail
of yellow bolts,
rivulets feigning rivers,
feigning lakes,
seeping into afternoons
and nights
that crackle
while windows hum,
trees humming
and stretching,
past splintered bark
and broken limbs,
falling on waking toads

morning skies dripping
like dew, like melting ice
laying green on green
to meet
yellow shafts
of tethered light.

This is a very cool poem. I can almost feel the rain enveloping me.
