The dogs came home, full of life and mischief. My landlord's family and I all rejoiced. In the garden the lilies now crowded up in all their old places, each with a bud coming first.
I walked around to visit them like old and long lost friends. They had been gone or leaving me for months and months since the rain had stopped.
My landlord showed me that the road was being paved outside our house. This was encouraging since it would cut down on the dust.
My helper had not come all week, and I was getting weary from the housework. I hoped soon to have less dirt to clean.
That night I sat out in the kiosk which now had railings. I looked out at the stars. I prayed. I went to bed.
