Storm
I wait and watch, write and wonder
as birds fly above the field
and clouds gather over Pedernal.
The wind increases,
freshening the air,
rustling the leaves of the trees,
whipping through what little hair I have.
I retreat to the
cover of the dining hall
as the wind increases,
the birds disappear
the temperature dips
and large drops of water
plummet from the sky
and plop on the ground
bringing and renewing life.

Singing (?) in the Rain
I must have been three and living on Neville Island.
Never did like an umbrella.

Held at Midway
We neither
feel nor hear
the wind;
we remain
dry afar
from rain;
we safely
sit and wait
on board
as the storm
its fury
expends
on New York
where journey
will end.

Tulip after the rain
After the Presbyterian Ecumenical Advocacy Days cruise,
which did indeed last only three hours – sorry Gilligan –
we returned to the hotel.
The rain stopped.
Its aftermath remained.

It rained.

A stormy night in Manhattan
Above the howling wind
do I hear the
cries of sisters and brothers
abused,
violated,
neglected?
Amid the pelting raindrops
do I see the
tears of sisters and brothers
brutalized,
exploited,
forgotten?
And if I hear,
and if I see,
do I
react,
repent,
respond?

Under a grey blanket
A grey blanket
envelopes the airport,
the constant drizzle
enhances the atmosphere –
the dreariness exceeded
only by my mood.
