Tears In the Rain
Listen to poem:
Raindrops on window
coalesce to create rivulets,
that run down the window pane.
They are like teardrops,
which emanate from pain deep within,
and which run down the face,
leaving snail trails that glisten,
showcasing the ache and suffering amassed.
Seldom do these drops
free-fall on a chute,
but when they do
they splatter with
a splish, splosh, plonk
and shatter,
leaving a spray pattern
as clear evidence on the ground.
