Rain all morning as it does.
Her belly like an apple
about to drop. Any day now
any day now now.
Outside the ducks
are wearing their best colors
despite the heaviness of rain.
By afternoon the dogwood
has bloomed before my eyes.
Pink camellia petals scatter
the wet drive and even I
can see,
all good things
come to those who wait.
don't wait too long. that's just lame. :)
