groves and grace.

what california needs is rain.
the land is way too brown
and the grass is way too dry. i think
it all prefers the wildfires because
at least it has something to do
other than wither, which,
i imagine, has little appeal.

even a light sprinkling would be
nice, just to get things going a
little, i mean. also, it's
hard for drivers to adjust to
the rain, so it's probably best
to bring it incrementally. things
get weird.

but still, with rain comes new
fruit and with fruit comes satisfaction
as the harvest is evidence of hard
work now made complete. we remember
that the farmer plants the seeds,
but has no meteorological vote.
it's really more of a right time/right place kind of thing.
