Let the rain fall…
let it fall…
let it fall…
up
reach
you
as and catch it in your ready hands
Open your mouth and taste it
clear and cool on your human tongue
dance round and round in delight like a giggling child
Let it rain…
let it fall…
let it simply fall…
let it sink into you and disappear
bringing new life
clearing a new path
This streaming hush of cool rivulets
This sombre sweetening
That cools your fevers
and brings a sigh of satisfaction wide over the land.

Everything in the West End seems to build up to the Pride Parade happening this weekend…The Fireworks series, the many towers getting washed down, cleaned up, and drilled upon…On top of all that is the little Ziggurat project they’re working on right next to me (which sounds a lot like dental work) One way and another, I figure it’s a great time to escape the clutches of the city and lean my arm up on the juice bar at the old hippy hangout in Roberts Creek, the Gumboot Cafe. Seraphina enjoys these types of outings. We’ll be playing Wayne and Patti Miller’s original music and Patti will dance! They are born – again Hawaiians. Summertime music will be made, and a good time will be had by all.

I was looking at my site stats yesterday and saw that I have had visitors, from literally all over the world!! thank you!! what a tremendous feeling. When your two favourite things to do are play the flute and write poetry…you could feel that you’re, well, like, obscure. But no…I am in touch with you! So what would you like to see more of here, World? Talk to me: in your language. 🙂 Holly
