Journal of Literature, Poetry, and Haiku

Rain and Whisky by Shane Huey (Editor)

7/10/2022

 
Picture

​It is raining
          and I am listening to Jazz Noir
The heavy rain comes down
          the whisky pours into my glass

                    The sky is dark
                         the crystal tinted amber

                    The rain and whisky
                         soothe the parched places

It is no longer raining
          I am still listening to Jazz Noir and I feel it
The whisky spills into my glass
          I drink it again and I feel it too
