It Rained Today

It Rained Today

It rained today after a long dry spell

excited with joy, I rushed to the woods

barefoot

to hear the sound of the rain

inside the trees 

I leaned my ears against the trunks

right ear

left ear

one tree to another

O! the soothing beats of rain water

whirling up the trunks 

carried me somewhere

I do not know where

after a while I opened my senses

birds hunting for flooded worms and grubs

seemed noticeably muddled

passers-by stared at me

with a bewildered look on their faces

their dogs woofed at me

I know my way was a disgrace

my ears kept on listening

my ears kept on listening.
