Puddles

Someone at the meeting last night said, "Oh yeah and it rained today. I think."

Yes the sky had clouded over, the heavens opened up and this miraculous liquid that sustains all life poured out onto the ground in great quantities. Water. Pure. Clean. Fresh water. The same stuff they charge $3.00 a bottle for at special events. Just coming down from the sky, running off roof tops, gurgling through down spouts and draining into manholes. Watering the grass and the trees and the flowers and the weeds. Water. Cleaning the air, washing the dust and pollen from houses and cars and making the world bright and fresh and wholesome.

"Oh yeah, it rained today."
