-Today’s weather-

Geographers tell me

I'm nearly surrounded by water;

their findings substantiated

by a leisurely walk-around.

Biologists tell me

my body is composed of nearly 65% water,

somewhat less when calculated by

Pathologists.

Geologists say
there’s a quantifiable element of water
to be found in subsurface crystalline stone.

with enough evidence at hand,

I've considered the inclusion of indispensable

bodies of water within the texts of poems, and this morning

Meteorologists are predicting

increasingly overcast skies with an 80%

chance of rain later in the afternoon, and yet

it's raining now.
