I am waiting...

I am listening. Rain on roof. Appliances humming. Horse hooves on wood. I am waiting to see if there will be a rainbow. I am looking at droplets on pine boughs, glistening like diamonds. I am drinking guava juice, wondering about guava. I am wishing I could capture something I cannot name. I am wanting to fast forward time at the same moment I wish to stop it. I am listening so hard I think I hear bells and screams in the silence. I'm waiting.
