A Rain Note From Yorkshire
Rainfall from the heavens
Flashing lights on the horizon
Tapping drops from the skies on frilly rooftops
Whooshing splashes on leafy greens
Pit-a-pat...pit-a-pat...!, rhythmic sounds on rusty metals.
Grey sky with thin silver linings
Stretching abreast its surface with thundering blasts
Wavery but gentle on the earth
Deep letterings on sandy soils
Drenching flows on tree trunks.
Soothing and surreal, the chills feel
On such beautiful downpours at dusk in a little cottage in Meltham
Wrapped in thick clothings
Warmed by the idyllic glow from the fireplace
And sip after sip from my lofty cup, that stays
The zesty taste of my Yorkshire tea.
