"Praise the Rain" by Joy Harjo

It’s been a dry autumn in Austin, but the week of 10/25 rain was in the forecast, and it seemed appropriate to offer a praise song to it. It was also appropriate to share the words of Joy Harjo, our first Native American poet laureate. Here is her poem.

“Praise the rain; it brings more rain.
Praise the rain; it brings more rain.”
