Rain, you stayed away far too long;
our land is dry.
Kiss us with your drops!

The Story behind this Haiku

When I saw this drought map, shivers of dread ran up and down my spine. Worst drought status I have ever seen for Arizona. Through this haiku verse, my supplication rose to the heavens. Kyrie eleison.
