Rain Storm

The wind howled
The mountain glowed
The sky roared
The heart thundered
The pelting rain
Washed the pain
The heart again
Joy regained

Premium Member Dented Cans - a Love Story

driving away slow
   enchanted by metaphors…
        rice pelting our car
   white picket fences ahead
dented cans streaming behind

Premium Member You and I

~ You and I ~ 

Down comes the rain
   pelting the ground
Out comes the sun
   with a rainbow crowned
Along comes the wind
   lapping up puddles
Nature's at play... You and I
   ~ we snuggle and cuddle

California Winter 2019

we wake to grayness
flash flood warnings 
and mud slides on the news

constant rain pelting on roofs 
small lakes and ponds in yards
drainpipes pulsing and gushing 

evacuation a rare but possibility   
monsoon in California

Premium Member I Love the Storm

I want the summer storm
with rolling dark clouds
and the sound of crashing thunder

I want to watch
streaks of flashing
lightening cut through
the sky like a knife
and feel the breeze
of pelting rain
as it hits the pavement

Timorous Creeds

Dancing to the tune of iniquity,
Deviously artless in their silent retreat,
Elusively lashing out unjustly, 
Pelting out timorous creeds;
A casualty in their vapid beliefs,
Brought upon by diligent lunacy, 
Primed in erroneous ideologies.

Premium Member Summer

Sun brilliant, hot warming, shining, baking daylight, beams, showers, deluge drizzling, streaming, pelting melodious, refreshing Rain May 2, 2021 for Caren Krutsinger's 'Spring or Summer Diamante Poem ' Poetry Contest

Premium Member Rain

Soft wet droplets refresh my dull senses:
as the soaking overcast drives me insane
with the sweet faint fragrance of champagne
and the continuing pelting drenching rain
by the sea shore and dry open plain

The Deafening Silence

A mute cacophony rings between my ears.
The silent dungeonous din of the pelting stone past.

And in that roaring, the hauntings come 
and the black dog, waiting, salivating, silently saunters alongside the 
specters and, heavy, blankets me in darkness.

Premium Member Savoring Petrichor

magic oil released in the air
prior to rainfall
alerting us to earthworms
and April showers
Being a pluviophile I adore
the fragrance of petrichor
it opens up my memory
light delicate rains
and cold bitter pelting rains
I savor this scent in silence

Premium Member Raindrops Falling

raindrops falling lightly
tapping against my windshield
raindrops falling harshly
pelting against closed house windows
raindrops playing tricks with my mind
kissing my soft skin
playing peek a boo in my hair
moistening my lips
raindrops falling, falling, stop

Exceedingly Joyful

Rain pelting on roof   
when there should be snow...
visions of lilies
on descending slopes.


Let's climb that hill,
and then lay down...
to feel heartbeats 
of ecstacy.


Our sweet voices
on soft winds...
seek Heaven. 


But
can urge

end?

Premium Member Sometimes

It’s rains sometimes:
Pouring, pelting,
Melting the snow, 
Dissolving the ice below.

Sometimes the sun shines:
Warming, comforting,
Melting the snow
Dissolving the ice below. 

Like life sometimes:
Pouring, pelting,
Dissolving, melting
Heart and soul below.

rain 
                     wet, moist 
             drizzling, pelting, falling 
cloudburst, precipitation, effulgence, luster 
        beaming, radiating, shimmering 
                    bright, lustrous 
                          shine

Premium Member Pitter Patter

Pitter patter raindrops are slapping 
The windows pelting at the glass
Like chipped bone hacked and splintered
Wind whipped and catapulted 
The wood of the house dulls the sound
But the glass twinpained amplifies
The droplets Pitter Patter, Patter,Pitter
An unnatural sound to disturb sleep

Premium Member Long Cold Winter

**Haiku**

bitter wind blows stout
pelting icy snow crystals….
cold winter’s harsh thoughts

**Senryu**

treed primate postures
like Indian totem pole….

The Anchor

I once loved
an anchor
one of those
that sails
on skin
one of those
that has 
a rowing heart
and pelting blood
within


One of those
who blows
mussel covered
kisses
one of those
that tells
mermaids salty lies
one of those
who'll
go down with
rum and shackles
the day he finally
dies.

Prince Charming and the Mermaid

Pelting shapely pebbles into the lucid lake,
Lonely, among daffodils and golden mandrakes,
And rejoicing the dance of silver flakes,
A delicate penumbra catches his fancy great,
And in a sweep, away, his heart does take.
Ruthless in love and incredible in stake,
He dives deep down,
Into his own grave.

Heaven’s Dew Or God’s Tears Written: by Tom Wright March 2015 The cadence of raindrops Pelting the window pane, Creates an unwritten story Complete, but without name; Rain could be God’s tears Shed for his creation? Birthed with a sinful nature, He loves us just the same.

Premium Member Rain

Rain By Tom Wright 8/15/01 Rain, pelting on brown leaves, Causes premature falling. I contemplate, droughts reprieve, and night sounds calling. Night sounds, that to a Creator rejoice, So, while still among the living. I too, begin happily lending my voice, For rain, that God is giving.

I Hear the Rain

Who hears the rain better than I?
Softly at first, almost a sigh.
Then pelting, melting, hard on the roof
Angry, yet soothing,
Do you need more proof?
The rain is my pal,
My buddy, my friend.
I love when it comes,
My day at an end.
Some hate the rain,
Though I cannot agree
I live for the rain 
When it falls just for me.
