Beginning

the rain has softened the earth
trees drip reminders on my forehead
echoes of early memories slipping forward
trickling down my cheeks
daffodils bend with the weight of the drops
spilling their burdens on the walk
you are on my mind
as i consider the way we have grown from new to less than new
in the air there is a damp, metallic scent
and humid cool weight sits in my lungs
water falls down and the rest is renewed
