driving in the rain

I drive south on the motorway with lights on and rain spray everywhere.  I turn the music up loud to compete with the swish and roar.

fast windscreen wipers
metronomes for marching beat
on the radio

Suddenly, nearing Leicester, the sky lightens, and the rain eases. Now I’m happy to stop for a break.

noise, excitement
drives us onward -
can we step aside?
