The other day I was walking and It was so pretty I Sat and stared at the Moss, cool and dark like the night, and the unpretentious little flowers and I prayed a bit. So i guess that lnstead of fantasizing about the future I should be appreciating now. Because last week, today Was in my fantasies. Lenore, 1 1 E

THE RA'N As the shadows of trees flash upon my window, Raindrops on the roof trickle down into the gutter, Then the f rogs in the drain croak With the excitement of the rain As the rain gets heavier it pelts On to the road like lightning, And makes the sky look like a haze from my bedroom, As it moves away the f resh air is left behind.
