Softly Falling Rain
Tiny splatters,
I hear the raindrops fall,
like teardrops they cascade –
down my window pane.
Soft gentle rain,
like a sweet caress,
running down my cheeks,
as I look up into the leaden sky.
I look up toward the rain,
seeing the silvery gray above,
a fine curtain of rain –
closing the world from me.
Rain ever so soft and gentle,
I watch as the raindrops,
splash against my window,
wondering if they bring greetings to me.
Perhaps someone once dear to me,
sends me love,
as raindrops keep tapping –
to say I love you.
The feeling of love so strong,
nothing anymore is wrong,
as the dark clouds drift by,
somewhere a hazy sun,
is shining up high.
Your thoughts come to me,
out of the long ago,
with memories,
like reels of film –
spinning in my mind.
Rain brings daydreams,
in a world now wet and shiny,
waiting for the clouds to part
and for rainbows to start.
Each raindrop I greet,
as it courses down the window pane,
bringing me precious memories,
from the clouds in the sky above.
So I sit by my window,
looking out into the rain,
I hear gentle rainy day music –
listening to it drip, drip, drip.

Cleansing rain, like teardrops from Heaven bringing a message of love. This is a lovely, sweet, poem, Rasma.
Thank you, Phyllis.
“…….like a sweet caress……. “, some things about the rain , the sound of it on a metal roof or at the streams and brooks when they become a roaring cascades . I hope that the rain is always cleansing for us , Nice writing Rasma !
Thank you, Ed.
You encapsulated rain with your rhythm. Well done and a joy to read Rasma. Happy Saturday! Jamie
Thank you, Jamie. Hope you have a sunny Sunday.
I love rainy days, walking in it, sitting at a window watching it pour and drip down the glass too. Especially like to sleep under it, listening to the pitter patter on a roof top as it lulls me to sleep. Nicely penned my friend, much appreciated the rhythm as well.
Thank you, Vincent.
