Drop.

Rain.
Pitter pat. Titter tat.
Down you fall across the dark city.
Sprinkles as you start, drops as you form, puddles collect you as you land.
Warm in the summer and cold in the spring.
Water, water everywhere.
Rain.

Rain.
You saturate the ground and flood the earth.
Clouds over sun. Clouds over skies.
Cleaning off the dirt, exposing the lies.
Rain.

Rain.
The sky pours out. It panics, it rumbles, it nervously cries.
Tears from the sky fall down the cheeks of hills and mountain tops.
They flow steadily into small streams that lead into rivers.
It reaches the mighty ocean who swallows the tears into its overwhelming body.
Rain.

Rain
Drowning the thirsty with your sad.
When your rain, you pour,
Merciless against those who have no shelter.
Rain

Rain
Renews and grows.
Destroys.
Rain.

Rain.
Let’s the imagination wonder.
Looking out of a windowsill.
Pitter pat, titter tat.
Down you fall across the dark city.
Sprinkles as you start, drops as you form, puddles collect you as you land.
Warm in the summer and cold in the spring.
Water, water everywhere.
Rain.

Happy (rainy) July 21.
Happy Birthday to someone special ;)
