I slid my hand inside the rain
To feel how smooth and sparked
Under hushed grey cloth
It unzipped,
My fingers parting drops
Like brushing open
A dress of silk
That first blush of cool
Late in the evening
Clouds slipping off
Their sunsets
For dVerse Quadrille

Love the personification of rain… but the the rain has such small hands.
