Lenna Walker Poet Rhyme

Rain

RAIN

Misty rain is falling 'round
Upon my head, a dewy crown

I watch the rain bounce from the grass
It's roots devour the liquid mass

A soft breeze flows through yonder trees
I imagine all the things it sees

Like a bird on the wing
It gets to see most everything

The thunder roars it's warning voice
I know that I must make a choice

Do I hide from the pouring rain 
Or let it wash away my pain

I came out here alone today
To send my demons off to play

So I think I'll stand my ground
While the rain is falling 'round.

Chris Green April 11, 2017 at 11:55 AM A beautiful poem to read on a rainy day down here in Texas. :) There is a hint of sadness but a certain strength to this poem. Nicely done my friend. Lenna Walker April 18, 2017 at 11:17 AM Thank You Chris, as always, your feedback is important. You seem to sense the emotion from my work that others do not notice. I was enjoying nature while cleansing my soul in the rain.
