Brigid Poetry Fest in Cyperspace

Waiting

We wait
Patiently, not so patiently
We wait
Worried, praying, distracted
Waiting

Not for Spring
Who bursts thru the door uninvited
With her hyacinths, daffodils and blossoms
We wait

For You
To drench the earth
To fill the reservoirs and streams
To greet the salmon
Waiting off the coast
To give the bears a reason to sleep

Rain.
Here you are, at last!!
Please stay awhile,
Okay?
