Taste of Freedom


A little while ago, thick clouds gathered and scudded across the Milky Way. It rumbled and thundered followed by lightning and a blustery, west wind. The birds flew homewards, sensing imminent catastrophe in the air.Then,it rumbled again and the skies burst and water hammered down, waking the somnolent earth below.

Stretching out my hand through the grilled, sodden window of my house, I felt the needles of rain, drumming incessantly upon my palm and sending down through the inmost pores of my being.
