Fat round raindrops fall And flood the fetid street, A warm, wet treat For an island owned by heat. A slippery deluge, a storm, Lamai welcomes the warm Caress of wet hot rain And I am birthed into this land, Into sun, colour, and sand. Waters break, A lake, deluging me Willingly, I bathe In amniotic rain Reborn, in heat, and hope, and pain.
