Ulan (Rain) Carefully she slipped off her black shiny shoes, rolled out her bright white socks , and carried them with her index and forefinger . Between where she stands and the school… flood flows like a gentle stream. For 25 centavos a man carries her to the dryer side where you could see the flag with a sun and 3 stars waving like a sail in the middle of the storm. She then puts her shoes and socks back on and with no hesitation marched inside the gates. That girl was me……
No matter how severe the weather was…we made it to school with a strong plank or a pair of strong arms . Sometimes not as dry… strong winds turning over our umbrellas like a dead spider without its web. My childhood and the rain….without raincoats nor boots . Just the pool of puddles and the water pouring as we danced and skipped letting it refresh us. I don’t remember anyone drowning , nor people losing their homes and their neighborhood altogether. A tragedy like this takes me home…..and we need strong arms and planks to carry us through
