Shooting the Breeze
Standing under the bus shelter in the rain,
 Reading yesterday’s Wall Street Journal,
 The bell tower chimed in the distance, 
 A train whistle blew,
 The sky opened up,
 The clouds roared,
 Dogs barked,
 The streetlight flickered,
 The gutters flowed, 
 Leaves gathered at my feet,
 The Wind screamed,
 And my bus arrived.
 
 I got on.
 “Lovely night isn’t it?” said the driver.
