I figure I usually have an umbrella tucked in my packsack, and maybe - just maybe - that's why it hasn't rained for weeks and weeks.
Or maybe it's because it rarely rains in Victoria between mid-July and the end of August.
Anyway, I've been walking down the sidewalk, eyeballing the grey clouds and daring them: "C'mon! I'm unprotected! Drench me!"
In reply, a green, but dessicated leaf plummets and slides to come to rest against my toes with a dry rattle.
Would it count? I ask myself. Could I catch a falling leaf, and wish for rain?
