Belden Raiser Poet Free verse

Rain In the Night

Rain in the night

Rain in the night brings peace
A primal thirst quenched
As the earth is quenched
The patter of raindrops on the roof
Is the sound of a gift being unwrapped 
The frogs sing their pleasure
As I settle in anticipation
Of a clear bright dawn
