drops of water fell on the red blanket and
soaked into dark icy spots. [father paul]
sprinkled the grave and the water
disappeared almost before it touched the
dim, cold sand; it reminded him of
something - he tried to remember what it
was, because he thought if he could
remember he might understand this. he
sprinkled more water; he shook the
container until it was empty, and the water
fell through the light from sundown like
august rain that fell while the sun was still
shining, almost evaporating before it
touched the wilted squash flowers.
