A Raindrop Lullaby

Small raindrops pitter patter against my window. The sound the raindrops make is nature’s soothing music, a light shower lullaby. No winds are howling, so the raindrops fall softly, almost like a glistening mist, kissing the leaves on trees and the lovely petaled faces of my flowers. I step out onto my deck for a while, enjoying the gentle song of pitter patter. Come, little raindrops. Keep nourishing the plants around my house. I go back to my bedroom and lay my head on my pillow until the raindrop lullaby lulls me to a noon-time nap.

Oh how lovely and refreshing are noon time naps when is gray outside! For some reason there's less guilt over sleeping during the day if it's raining! Love the line about the flowers faces... so sweet. Xo

This poem has made me feel the beauty of a gentle rain. Unfortunately after the first few rains, in the months of July, August and even September, the incessant rain make us wish if the rain had stopped. I love the way you have concluded the poem with a noon time nap, listening to the lullaby of the rain.

This is such a beautiful rain poem dear sweet andrea, im not always a fan of rain as it gets rough when it rains here. But reading this makes me like rain especially how youv described it with lines such as “ so the raindrops fall softly, almost like a glistening mist, kissing the leaves on trees and the lovely petaled faces of my flowers.” wow just beautiful imagery! I love this! A new fave for me!
