You May Watch

Light

Reflecting off the

Concrete

The rain has freshly stopped

Everything

Smells new

A different kind of promise

Than the typical ones

The wind is still

Sweeping through

Fluttering flags

Stealing the foggy wisps

From exhaled air

And tonight in the mountains it

Will howl

The voice of a million

Discordant

Ideas

Swirling together

Beating at the glass

Tumbling and tangling with the rain

But you are safe inside

You may watch the storm come

And you may

Watch it pass

And be 

Content

In knowing

That it ever happened at all
