Respite

Just because a bit of sun comes out and the rain continues while the light floods the world doesn't mean you have to suddenly be happy, but I usually am. Just because later half the clouds clear out and those remaining start turning a blinding white doesn't mean the storm is gone. It could be taking a break, and the rain could return an hour or two later, and that's what it did. But now the sun has gone below the horizon and now I can only remember what the rain looked like in the afternoon light. The clouds have decided to hide the moon altogether, or there might be rare moon showers. Were that to happen I'd be that happy again. Funny how that works.
