Notes About The Poem

- Rainy Trip Home -

The musical of the rain
                                 sounds as tinkling music
                              not a specific beat or rhythm
                         
                                    Who has punctured
                                     Our Lord's clouds?
                                Cracks opened on the sky

                                The asphalt, wet and dark
                                 the passengers are silent
                                   breath mists the route
                              hides the beak under the wing
                                        as wet crows
                                could almost grasp the fear

                                     This narrow, dark
                               and desolate country road
                                         Heavy rain
                                    major consequences
                                feared landslides and floods

                                   A feeling of numbness
                           the mood of melancholy or pathos
                              everyone has paid their ticket
                                        drive carefully
                               - hope to arrive home safely

Speaks Volumes November 7, 2022 at 2:59 PM Beautiful description Sunshine for when mother nature decides the earth needs drenching the consequences can be dire. Your poem is stunningly forceful, and quite alarming. You did very well to bring this threatening episode to the reader from a gentle beginning to a powerful summit.
