Drizzle

It drums
rhythmically
on the high topped
trees
as rhythmic as
Puerto Rico's coqui.
It bathes every leaf and quenches
the gluttonous soil.

The coquis serenade the night

Puerto Rico

It's the isla I will never
know
mi isla,
like the rain never leaves
its forest
you will never leave
my heart.
