it has rained now for 10 days straight.
it looked like it would stop
on Wednesday
but at noon
it all tore open again
I’m growing tired of the rain
but at least I’m growing.

sounds like west Bengal rain (sometimes), 10 days of continuous rain is foretelling of flood I guess.

I like that.. “Every syllable is worth it’s place”. That’s pretty poetic in and of itself. 🙂
