Straddling the line between monsoon and drought.

The weatherman couldn’t predict Mother Nature this time.

What was happening, there is no scientific diagnosis.

The sky cried for a little while

Until the sun broke through the clouds

Just for a moment, everything was ok.

Just for a moment, everyone was on the same page.

People came out of their shells with a purpose

All looking up at the clouds with the same look of masked anguish.

Just for a moment, the weatherman predicted

Dark and cloudy is the the forecast today.
