The idea of rain–rooted in imagination, ingrained in our memories, etched in popular culture–is enchanting; almost as if it is real. Read this fascinating poem.

Yesterday a cloud with dark brow hung above island sky
Blade of grass, shivers of joy
It could rain, it could rain, now

Pluck cello strings of sunlight, long journey
Each colour singing a hidden melody
A man flaps pink wings, a woman becomes moon

We turn around in rain
Returning to Ithaca at dawn
My eyebrows grow faint, shedding memories
