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A silent dawn, the skies were gray A sign that rain was on its way The flowers drooped they seemed withdrawn The skies were gray, a silent dawn From the sky rain came pouring down and nature drank from all around Flowers let out a thankful sigh Rain came pouring down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.
