Old friend

An old friend returned last night
tapping lightly
on the northern window
obscuring the view

In its absence
fire reigned free
swept along on
the dreaded east wind

Softly stroking my face
as I glanced heavenward
quenching
the thirst of spring

The thirst for spring
from these parched islands
the call answered
as the rain danced
