The rains came
Falling heavily on the land
As I stood by my window
Watching the drops
Roll down
Into each other
Quickening their pace
Until they reached the bottom
The ground water
Came from everywhere
Rolling down, down, down
Into the small creeks
That fed the streams
That fed the brooks
Flowing into the tributaries
And eventually
Into the rivers that continued
Fall and tumble
Into the sea
Yes… the rain went on
Falling heavily on the land
While I stood at my window
Watching the drops
Roll down
Into each other
Quickening their pace
Until they reached the ocean
Which as far as I know
Has never
Ever
Been filled
