Notes About The Poem
For: Raindrops 2 Poetry Contest
Sponsor: Jcb Brul

Raindrops

Raindrops falling as they must;
sometimes rain is soft and pleasant,
sometimes it comes in raging torrents,

A flash of light, the roar of thunder
tells us that a storm is coming;
when it's passed the sun stops hiding,
shining down with warmth and comfort.

Raindrops are the voice of nature;
I like it best when they speak friendship
gentle as a lullaby on the roof o'er my sleeping.

How lovely to think of rain speaking as a friend... and the sound of rain on a tin roof was the lullaby I feel asleep to when I stayed at my grams house! Thanks for evoking that memory! Xo
