Desert Rain

This morning

Barely even today because it was just barely past midnight
we were on the 10E, en route to Cave Creek
We had been watching lightening on the horizon for hours
And it began to rain
Pour, as a matter of fact
It was gorgeous, fat desert rain
And the whole world smelled of wet earth
and sweaty gym socks
I wasn't driving so I got to gawk as awkwardly as I wanted out the windshield

Good Morning Arizona.
