Rainy Day In The Junction
/A day in the rain
————
It is a mid-Saturday morning,
coffee in the garage, tinkering around,
looking out an open door, staying inside.
It is another rainy day in the Junction.
Can hear kids screaming
across the road.
Walls of their house
barely keeping them in,
waiting to go explore outside.
Kept in by a rainy day in the Junction.
Open the garage door
to see two brothers
on the next-door deck.
Enclosed talk amongst family
waiting for social hour
to take in the rainy day in the Junction.
Hearing the giggles
on the other side of the house.
Shift over to a see a mother and daughter
fixing a small garden
on the side of their home.
You can see who dragged who out
on this rainy day in the Junction.
Have to chuckle to myself.
A little wet not stopping a thing.
People still busy moving around
ignoring this rainy day in the Junction.
