“Las Largas Eles de la Lluvia…”

What a cliche it is to say I’m grateful for waking to a cool steady rain on a midsummer morning. Everyone knows raindrops and teacups are cozy, especially if you don’t have to get out of bed right away, which I don’t.

I feel nothing like ordinary today though, wallowing in tea, and listing in longhand my lonely dreams of traveling to the seaside home of Pable Neruda, Isla Negra. If you ask me, finding your poetry books and re-reading words that make the breath catch, on a work day, is worthy of special mention in a gratitude journal.

This is the one that made me stay in bed an extra hour today:

Llueve sobre la arena, sobre el techo el tema de la lluvia: las largas eles de la lluvia lenta caen sobre las páginas de mi amor sempiterno, la sal de cada día: regresa lluvia a tu nido anterior, vuelve con tus agujas al pasado: hoy quiero el espacio blanco, el tiempo de papel para una rama de rosal verde y de rosas doradas: algo de la infinita primavera que hoy esperaba, con el cielo abierto y el papel esperaba, cuando volvió la lluvia a tocar tristemente la ventana, luego a bailar con furia desmedida sobre mi corazón y sobre el techo, reclamando su sitio, pidiéndome una copa para llenarla una vez más de agujas, de tiempo transparente, de lágrimas.
