Rain

Sound of the raindrops, rap, rap rapping gently on my window…whisper your silent 
melodies… nudge, nudge, nudging at my heartstrings…rhythmically beating to your 
cadences…thump, thump thumping in my chest…to your sweet beckoning…hum, hum, 
humming in my ears…your subtle invitation… tug, tug tugging at my gaze…steadily locking it 
with yours…shush, shush shushing my lips…gracefully swaying to your symphonies…my 
glimpse of you slowly fades…prod, prod prodding me back to reality… my brief glance at 
heaven slowly vanishes…going, going gone…along with the rain
