- six days' rain
- a swallow
- almost reaches them -
- storm clouds
-
- lightning flash
- steel glint
- of the sea
-
- the sizzle
- of wet kindling
- rain on the tin roof
-
- a dragonfly
- whirrs against the skylight
- thunderclap
-
- heavy rain
- on the jacaranda
- this sense of loss
-
- overflowing gutter
- the bed too wide
- without you
