Today
the sky is gray.
Silent
at the moment.
The clouds do not weep
yet.
Then they open
their hearts
and the rain
falls.
It falls.
Falls.
Falls.
Falls.
Bounces
off the trees.
Slides
down
the
rooftops
onto the ground
below,
filling in the pores
and making puddles
to splash in.
What a wondrous
sound
the rain makes.
Do you hear
it?
Pit pat.
Pit pat.
On the ground.
Such a soothing
melody.
I watch
it out my window
As the water hits the
glass.
Thud!
Thud!
Announcing its
arrival
to me.
Hello, rain.
You are always welcome
here.
