Year of writing 75 The rain

3/16/12

The water pools behind the house
 in hard rains.
It finds cracks in the foundation;
 seeps in like old friends.
There is something familiar
 in the squelch underfoot,
the sodden towels.
 Something comforting in this moisture;
the damp earth smell from the cellar
 that welcomes me home.
