Nothing But Rain
Today is rain, nothing but rain
The ground speckled, splattered, induced
Clouds bursting, full to the brim
People scuttle to avoid
Sounds are muffled, reduced
Steel glistens, a moment restored
The sun is pealing, waiting turn
My clothing wet, darker still
It has been so hot, welcome reprise
Not cold yet warming still
A shower from heaven so it seems
To clean and replenish all around
I can smell the rain this time
Fresh, clear, metallic somewhere
Quiet everything out with inside
Of my heart, soul and mind
My mouth open, I catch a drop
First one, then two, now three
Whilst others complain, me happy that
Today is rain, nothing but rain
