In recognition of Poetry Month, and to celebrate and highlight our treasure trove of Orcas Island poets, Orcas Issues is pleased and honored to again offer daily poetry during April.
Rain Here
— by Iris Graville —
travels in parallel,
courses horizontally,
pushed by winter wind.
I ride its wave, wrapped
in polar fleece,
coffee in hand,
dog at my feet.
What a postcard snapshot of Island Life in winter – invigorating rain and wind being such a part of our daily round. This paints a picture i can see so clearly in my mind and feel viscerally. Thank you.
