Behind the Rain Valentine

Even the dead things
look better rained on
the bare fields richer
the empty streets shinier
catching all the lights
and always that sense of relief
like something being forgiven
a small error or a great sin
depending on the wind
and the vindictiveness of the lightning
that what has risen up to heaven
as a gift has been turned back
creating a certain sorrow
the earth weeps with the rejection
those tears its resurrection
