I hear anger in the distance as the cars go rushing by
But the sweet sound of rainfall in the forefront of my mind
The wind blows around me like a centrifugal force and all I can smell is cleanliness
As the earth bathes herself
As I watch the barren branches dance against the white molten sky
I see the winds moving their dormant limbs
Left to right
It's like watching two strangers on a dance floor within each others sight
Gaze up, gaze down, hoping to catch an eye
Step one-two, step front-back, 
The diagram for movement becomes abstract
The dancers change their moves
As the sky becomes their grace
And the music is the rain
With the wind their driving force
Rooted to the ground swaying back and forth
They can't move their feet
Stuck to the floor
What beauty to behold
What disappointment to realize
Watch these dancers in the wind
Try and take flight
But the earth she holds them down 
With all her might
