The Rain On My Glasses

The rain on my glasses
I see it, so magnified
Each droplet, a crystal
Gliding 
Upon the wall of my mind,
On every lens,
A waterfall, a river,
A stream
In the rear, I stand
Pondering
As if in a marvelous dream.

The rain on my glasses
I see it, so magnified
Each droplet,
A spring inundating
The arid ground of my mind
Through every lens,
A world drenched, colored,
Surreal
In the rear, I stand
Pondering
As if I have just begun to feel.

Farah I know the feeling with each droplet that falls on our lens is like painted rainbows in the clouds transformed by our vision sent down with the good Lords tears for us to embrace from Heaven and honestly there is nothing that can be more calming or refreshing then feeling the rain on our skin as it falls down from Heaven, Thank you for sharing your soul prints in poetry with all of us here in the poetry community because I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here with you today, Sincerely Dean

I am amazed at your poetry. Truly dumbfounded. Your intelligence, and insight are a thing of wonder. Something else that blows my mind is you are writing all of this at such a young age. Have you ever read or heard of Arthur Rimbaud?

I love how you use simplicity in your writing, how that metaphors are based into your writing that makes me ponder a lot. I am completely awed. Keep them going farah, will never stop to be inspired =) Love, Sami.
