Rain
05.15.06 (3:04 pm) [edit] The rain comes in waves, Dancing on the pavement, Following the lead of the wind As they swirl together In perfect sync; The world awash In cooling wetness, Making one think Of the beauty, The perfection, Of the sound of rain On foliage, Or pavement The plants exulting, Life giving waters Soaking the parched earth, Giving life, Strength, The energy to go on About the business of growth, To revel in life, Existence, To simply stand out for a season Before the earth once again Claims its own, To return to its source. |
