Rainy Day

 A silent dawn, the skies were gray
 A sign that rain was on its way
  The flowers drooped they seemed withdrawn
 The skies were gray, a silent dawn

 From the sky rain came pouring down
 and nature drank from all around
 Flowers let out a thankful sigh
 Rain came pouring down from the sky

 It played a song on window pane
 Thunder joined in with its refrain
 As it rained and rained all day long
 On window pane it played a song

Was this in the Raindrops Contest? I just saw he made a new contest for it, but it's raindrops in free verse.

There is a necessity for rain. I liked how the importance of rain was portrayed. Right now, we could use some rain.
