my morning prayer call:
 please end these flooding puddles
 water can destroy
 
 our house ruined thrice
 our hope so oft washed away
 ponds where there was lawn
 
 but look at the view
 the first-world rainy view
 to make my request
 
 after the drenched walk
 to a surprise bonus check
 to start my summer
 
 it’s like He listened
 by midday? pools and blue skies
 walking can save souls
