Forecast

The rain missed us
This afternoon, but
We did not miss the
Rain. We expected
Drops to catch us 
And looked up as
Clouds circled in a
Horizon above our 
Heads, darkening in
That menacing way
They do when rain
Is in the forecast, a
Window of hours, an
Anticipation it could
Pour now or in four 
Hours or we would
Dodge the event all
In all. The rain came
Later. We were home.
