Rain


Rain.
Small droplets of water
Fall effortlessly to the ground.
Seeping into the earth.
Renewing the land with life.
Rain.
Speckles my face.
Drenches my hair.
Soaks my clothes.
I stand outside.
In the caressing drops.
I feel them, healing the pain.
Cleansing the heart.
As I stare into the sky.
Little gems fall through the air.
Moistening my lips.
As you wrap your arms around me.
And you taste my tongue,
As we spin.
Rain.
The bringers of life.
Providing a gentle rhythm
on the roof,
Pitter Pattering,
As we listen together.
Always wondering how something so little.
Can do so much.
Rain.
