What do you think this poem is about?

Before The Rain

Blue is taken by the expectant rain
And given clothes of silver
I await the cleansing
Knowing soon I will not miss her
I am cold
In solidarity with the wanting earth
Wanting this steel grey day,
Relief will soon be ours
But for now
We wait
Together
