The
wonderful rain that dilutes the haze,
The smoky
haze that chokes the air,
And helps
us breathe a little easier,
The cats
included,
The cats
who know not the benefits of
respirators
in such conditions
But fall
sick all the same
Just as we
do
From
breathing the polluted air
By
courtesy of our regional neighbors
That’s now
being degraded by the rain
From what
it was
To
something a lot less polluted
And a lot
more breathable
For which
we give thee thanks, O Lord,
From the
bottom of our hearts,
The cats
included.
