To Travel With Raindrops

Author:  Runping Chen 

From the heavy clouds scurried the feet of rain,
On the heads of trees they stepped.
I hid myself under my umbrella 
But the raindrops never dodged.

My journey,
The part of the muddy and rugged
Came upon the open and clear rain
At the fork of wind.

I was like the palest raindrops
As if we met in the sky sometimes.
We walked side by side and then found
Poetry was my belief hereby on the muddy road.

The heartfelt wishes were pattering,
And emerged wet the past of my life.
The elegant hairs of rain dotted with splashes
Then were looking for the soul of Muse.

We traveled at double speed
While the raindrops chanting and
Blowing on my umbrella excited
Sprinkled piles of poetic lines.
