The Weight of Rain

Day 16 of 365

By Ellie HoovsPublished about a year ago 1 min read

They say gravity pulls

on everything

equally

But I’ve seen a mist

that floats in the air.

like ghosts that aren’t there.

Sometimes she freezes

in cold artic breezes

and she falls hard

despite gusty blows

But my favorite way

to see her keeping pace

is when she dances a trace

down the pane

of my bedroom window
