Spring in Oklahoma

Rain whispers on the shingles,
Trickles down the windows,
While a radio in another room
Offers static and Loretta Lynn.
We tiptoe around the edges
Of the loneliest of nights
Fantasizing a morning full
Of sun and winning numbers,
Warmth, kept promises,
Tiny green tendrils clawing
Their ways into this world.
