Rain

Rain Please pelt me Splatter against me and pool out Against your flesh desert. Spread cool across me, drench me With Your scent. Fresh, blossoms and bark Broken tender stems. Your texture. Moist, clean, gentle Your temperature, cold wind svelte. Regale me with your melody Against the world Your instrument. Metal, cars, shingles Dirt, grass, trees And the pavement. Shine your glitter on all of it Without any light to reflect. Grey clouds, they blue out my world. Seep deep into the soil My soul. Explore unseen galaxies Creatures, nature Chase away the dogs Into tiny boxes Even the burly dark man Flees into his home. This docile beauty. Feared? Your voice shakes the ground Where my feet stand in one of your Puddles. Your eyes open wide, sending their light Across the grey everything Sending millions of stars into Shimmery sparkles against This world you wind through like An emptying river. My Rainy day, Thank you.

"Shine your glitter on all of it Without any light to reflect. Grey clouds, they blue out my world." Where did that come from? I LOVE that. I have written many things about the rain, so close it is to my heart....Love, Sara:)
