The Dog Days of Summer are upon us. Sultry heat indexes in the triple digits and scarce rainfall are the rule. Today late-afternoon thunderstorms pour Heaven's tears across the parched land and bring relief. A fleeting rainbow seals the deal.
The envious tempest grumbles
Honeyed rumors of discontent
With the remindful, fleeting arch
Over its subsiding murky chaos;
Yet, takes heart in such alliance
Of heavenly tears and sunlight,
For it renews a blessed covenant,
That of the temporal with divine.
