Rain


there
on the horizon,
lightning strikes again
and falls crashing
all around
boom
thunder rolls
and fills my lonely heart
with the swift and sure beat
of the wild ever precipitation
sweet rain and the smell of green
wet, ever so wet, rain down
come rain on me, rain
fall and pour
come down
on me
smell of rain
the scent of a new fall
I love, I crave the sound,
and feel the tang and crackle
of it all. Come rain on me rain.
animals hide, but I, much wiser
thrust my heart up to heaven
with my arms outstretched
and open up wide
my mouth and
drink

rain
