In the Rain City<\/strong><\/p>\n

I come to my hometown<\/p>\n

it is noisy and crowded now<\/p>\n

it blocks movement<\/p>\n

It is raining hard, almost every afternoon<\/p>\n

as if watering the plantation<\/p>\n

in the Botanical Garden<\/p>\n

which has a variety of the flora<\/p>\n

It reminds me of when I was a teenager<\/p>\n

hanging out there with my friend<\/p>\n

Now you are lying weakly<\/p>\n

lacking strength<\/p>\n

I am coming to you<\/p>\n

hoping to find you well and cheerful.<\/p>\n

Lily Multatuliana<\/strong> (Indonesia)<\/p>\n
