after rain
watching rain drip from the trees
skies remain overcast
clouds have stopped spilling tears
road beneath her feet
black river
slick with wet
air is chill
not enough to show
exhaled breath
her thought patterns
scatter like the drops of rain
left on fallen leaves
hours pass unhinged
without duty
to fill them
nothing has to happen
only this moment
staring into wet beads
caught on green veins
beauty
in the stillness ...
