Faithful Readers,

Moderator maintenance dictates that the list will be
silent for the next couple weeks.  Continue to send
posting and I'll work them when I return.

Here is something for summer beyond budget news:

/Summer Rain/ by Raymond A. Foss

A break in the heat
away from the front
no thunder, no lightning,
just rain, warm rain
falling near dusk
falling on eager ground
steaming blacktop
hungry plants
thirsty
turning toward the clouds
cooling, soothing rain
splashing in sudden puddles
catching in open screens
that certain smell
of summer rain

See you in a few weeks,

JA for colldv-l
