Parched

Too much time under the sun’s blazing heat.

Away from the flowing streams of water that is seen from a distance.

Where else would the clay get the water it needs to quench its thirst?

When it seems like one long hot summer ahead?

Yet, hasn’t it happened before?

Couldn’t the hardened clay hope for a mighty Rain in the midst of summer?

Why do I feel like this is related to the previous post?

I figured it would seem that way. But it is not. Far from it.

Yes, the Raindrops can come during summer. Sometimes, it is when the sun is hottest that the refreshing water comes... hang on clay...
