IT'S MIDAFTERNOON, I STARE AT THE SKY I CAN SEE SOME CLOUDS WITH THE SUN FADED DOWN THE WIND PICKS UP, ADDING A LITTLE FALL CHILL TO THIS SOUTHERN AIR WHEN I LOOK AROUND, THE STILLNESS IS FAIR I'M WAITING ON THE RAIN, WE NEED IT DESPARATELY I GAZE AT MY YARD, I CAN SEE THE LEAVES DROPPING TO THE GROUND, NO ONE AROUND THE PLANTS ARE IN PAIN, NOT MUCH RAIN TOUCH OF HAZE THE PLANTS ARE IN A DAZE I WALK ALONG THE WOODS WITH MY DOG, AT A DISTANCE,STILL HAZY SKY, NO RAIN SUN STARTING TO GO DOWN AFTER A QUIET AFTERNOON THIS TOUCH OF HAZE FELT WARM ALL OVER TIME TO GO IN AND WAIT FOR ANOTHER DAY FOR RAIN TOUCH OF HAZE
