Dry
by Michael D. Grover
When I was growing up
It used to rain here all of the time.
Big thunderstorms
In the afternoon.
Now with the drought
The grass it all dies.
They tell us
We can water the lawn
One time every week.
Lake Okeechobee
Drying up.
Alligators in Loxahatchee
Coming up on land.
Brushfires started
By cars starting on the grass.
