Waiting For the Rain(In the Rain)

I've waited a long time(impatient) for the incoming rain(expected) my chin lifted towards the clouds abound. My gaze shifted, prepared to wait long term- I set my camp and settle down. Many months become the year, I've yet to hear(dripping, Pouring)near; I continue to watch the clouds. When abacus struck two; I felt drops so true, as to melt me like a cube of sugar; and turn me to goo. I've waited so long(relentless) holding on to hope(perspective) that rain would come, that I would bask, I take out my laptop- and complete my task. I checked my E-mail.
