Inspired by Constance La France's "W" words contest (missed deadline to join).

Whisper, rain, whisper! drip-drop…pitter-patter!!!! A rain-soaked dawn, watching playful rain, listening to its mischievous conversation ! Tall majestic trees shaking their branches, Small plants shivering and quivering ! Stories from the past float in the cloudy sky - Tapestry embroidered by fine strands of sadness and delight! The rose bush sways, The wind hums through the rustling leaves, Murmuring poignant words! Transferring passionate romance! The cloud floats - fluttering fragrant petals of Jasmine, swish me to a serene childhood, When picking flowers from the ground brought a sense of euphoria! Drip-drop, drip-drop, The dripping sound resonates memories of magical swing and joyful laughter, of petite flowers and vibrant chatter, Kaleidoscopic raindrops hold them all. You whisper to me in your soft velvety voice, reminisce our moments of endless joy. I am breathless! Clouds glide, clouds waft leisurely, exhibiting colours in a stunning rainbow! An extravaganza of captivating hues in their palette! Whisper, rain, whisper! drip-drop…pitter-patter!!

Beautiful sights and sounds you convey in this delightful poem, Mala. Reveling in nature --a poem tender as a whisper.

Dearest Mala, so many wonderful images that describe the joy of rain. I especially love "mischievous conversation" and the sounds of rain, "drip-drop....pitter-patter." These words , and your alliteration, really add to the experience of rain. Being from the Pacific NW, I do love the rain and its sounds. Wonderful to have you back in the soup. Hugs, blessings and much love my friend.

a captivating poem about one of my favorite events--the gentle falling of the rain. You captured the feelings so beautifully. I agree with these lines: The dripping sound resonates memories of magical swing and joyful laughter, of petite flowers and vibrant chatter, Something about rain takes me back in time. Well done, Mala. hugs, Sara

Thank you so much, Dear Sara. Gentle falling of the rain - I really enjoy! The sounds take me to my childhood, when we loved playing in the rain. Those were great memories, can be captured only in poetry. Love, Dear Sara, Hugs.
