Robin L. Gass Poet Rhyme

Rain Song

Drip drop
titter tatter
hear the raindrops
pitter patter
falling faster
growing fatter
hit the ground
splash and splatter.

Prattle tattle
swish and swizzle
hear them make
the sidewalk sizzle
pitter pitter
drip and drizzle
falling softer
start to fizzle.

Drip drip drip
they tap the pane
drip drip drop
they start to wane
rush gush
the gutters drain
hear the music
of the rain.

The sound in this piece plays lovely..I can hear the ping of each drop on the windows or bathing the house..you got my mind thinking of the sweet sounds of the rain. That means lady Robin that your piece was well done. Great job!
