Just Add Water

A happy childhood hour spent
Peering into 
A few scant inches of rainwater 
On hot days
Should come as no surprise.
For life, 
Simply add water.

Coupling

Grasses dancing wildly in the wind To music heard only By Angels or fools To melodies made From sunshine and shade And reflections in Rainwater pools

Red Rivers

A dozen red roses
bleed into rainwater
that trickles down like streams
through cracked pavement.
Pain squeezes
at her fractured heart,
its contents slowly oozing 
into her body,
like red rivers.

Premium Member By the Street Lamp

Lala land by the street lamp -
The lemon and lime raindrops
Land, one by one, on my tongue.
The flavors mix with the storm
And sugar cone; tangy cold
On my lips. Warmer with melt -
The sour savor of colors
And sip of rainwater muse.

Premium Member Rainbow

THE RAINBOW
============

The sun is shining,
Somewhere it is rainy,
There appears an arch,
With seven colours in the sky,
The droplets of the rainwater,
 Give colour to the shining sun
And makes the beautiful rainbow 
To bow at every one.

Aussie Green Frogs

Our green frogs would croak n croak, and in our rainwater tanks they spoke. a sort of hollow sound. When the rain finally come, 3 years of drought, don’t run, Dogpaddle in the water brown, River is a coming down, Mosquito will cause a frown, Grass is growing, clown. Some.

Biyaya Ng Ulan - Blessing of Rain

Ulang malamig
Tuloy-tuloy ang tagas
Sa yerong butas

Kapeng mainit
May tinapay at pansit
Biyayang sulit

Translation:

The cold rainwater
That just keeps flowing inside
The hole in the roof

Boiling hot coffee
Bread with Chinese rice noodles
Blessing so worth it

Premium Member Rainwater

A rain barrel near the house
While the rain is pouring
The rain barrel catches raindrops
Filling the barrel up to the top

Rainwater is useful
It is good for gardens
Used to wash the plants
While refreshing them

Rainwater makes small pools
The birds bath in puddles
They also drink the water
Rainwater is not wasted

Sin

under the canopy of primordial forest, a wild fern grows nestled
into the less-known path where exigencies take on diffused light
and rainwater trickles its descent, scalloping patterns of colour;
have you ever heard a fern crow with green feathers, sleek against
the sky, as if rocks could sing of joy and the only sin is not being here?

Rain - A Didactic Cinquain

Rain
Misty, sweet
Pelting, dewing, precipitating
Ever so warmish
Rainwater

Spring rain
Droplets wet, refreshing
Delighting, happening, crying
It was a surprise to us all
Cloud

Cloudy rain
Wonderful, stripy
Jumping, swimming, rolling
Such feelings of happiness

From a Balcony In Paris

From a Balcony in Paris

Fine rain 
open umbrella
Sitting on the balcony
Of a hotel 
Overlooking 
Haussmann-Saint Lazare.
Throngs of people
Something has changed
People drink
Starbuck 
Eat hamburgers
On the hoof.
Old restaurant closed
Converted
To fast-food joints.
I sigh
Drink from the bottle
Of Bordeaux 
To avoid 
Getting rainwater
In my wine.

Premium Member Sorry


I am sorry. 
The blue and white teapot
that was stained with green algae
and had a broken spout
and was sitting on a terracotta tile
in our garden and had, for years,
gestated life in its plump belly
of brewed rainwater,
is now in pieces, smashed
by a clumsy blow
from my rake.

It has left a hole 
in the world 
that I have tried,
but cannot fill.

Premium Member Earth's Care

Though the arrogance of humanity
Insists some part of it we own,
Fragile Earth on which we stand
Is given to us as a loan.
As we impose our footprints here,
May lovely blossoms show our path.
No poisons or impurities,
Just sweet rainwater for her bath.
In robust numbers we shall march
Against pollution of our land,
Treading lightly as we advance,
Trustees of globe on which we stand.

The Trees In the Cold Winter

The trees in the cold winter
Bared, but stood  tall and upright
Alone, while whistled in no height
Waited for regrowth day  and night 

By their  growing time baited
They were  not dead as fact  
From the intrinsic nature hide 
They whistled for forceful thunder

Welcome  the sunshine and the rainwater
Delighting the leaves  like twittering birds 
As well akin to the chasing toddlers

The Honeyed Grandeur

Clouds are the honeycombs of skyline,
Carrying the honey-sweet droplets of rainwater.
Each time rain touches our Earth,
The taste buds of soil taste the sweetness of the sky.
Every thunder-strike on the grey clouds
Orders the sky to gift more honey
To quench the thirst of all earthlings.
Every waterbody is a wondrous honeybee
Which serves the droplets of water from the honeycombs of the skyline.

Wisdom Paints Life

My God above whose wisdom surely shows 
When Mother Nature paints her glory grand.
While gilding grass beside the river grows,
The autumn trees with golden leaves, as planned,
Reflect their beauty, clinging reds and yellows.
Rainwater streams her life upon the land.
Beneath the mountain cattle comes to graze.
And thus, without the help of man, life stays.

Premium Member Waiting

The frogs are silent. 
Crows fly from tree to tree 
in tightening circles
and grow darker
in leafless canopies. 
Rainwater beads 
on abandoned webs
strung between 
the thin twigs of an oak
and hang like diamonds 
around the neck 
of a dead queen.

What was here 
is now somewhere else
and each year
I find it harder 
to wait out the long months
until it comes back,
and begin to wonder 
if it ever will.
