Rain Asks for Nothing
by
Gary Busha

Rain asks for nothing
yet gives itself away for free
so generously

From On the Dock: Haiku & Short Poems (Wolfsong Publications, 2017).
Used with the author’s permission.

Gary Busha is a Wisconsin native who likes that state’s changing seasons. His poetry — lean and plain-spoken, with themes of nature and lament — is strongly influenced by his good fortune in having grown up on Lake Winnebago. A poetry chapbook publisher for many years, Gary has three chapbooks of his own, and he has recently finished 12 pocket-sized mini-series of haiku. Query gbusha@wi.rr.com for a free sample.

Is it against the law to capture rain in Colorado?

Rain is free. Water costs money. Poems are on loan.
