Lights offer the faintest
Flickering of hope while
Solitary umbrella offers
Shelter from the constant
Trickle of rain and tears
Tag rain
Raindrop Kisses
Rain drops start falling
As the clouds begin to cry
I stand alone and close my eyes –
Welcome gentle kisses as
They softly caress my
Undressed skin
Bus Travel
Rain trickles down the
Sides of the bus, commuters
Make their way to work
Invisible Line
There is a crack in the roof
An invisible line that cannot be seen
And no-one would know, nor perhaps
No-one would care
But when it starts to rain
And the rain turns to a storm
The crack in the roof
Makes itself known
Storm
I wanted to love you
And hold you, and
Cherish you
But the blue was
Lost behind the clouds
Lightning replaced the sun
Now all I want
Is shelter from the storm
Rain
The rain is falling
Humming soft musical tunes
Washing the world clean
Raindrop
A drop of rain
Clings tentatively
In time’s brief moment
Until it cannot anymore
It’s grip is lost
Before falling
To the floor
Lightning has her Say
Listening to the rain
Cleaning life’s dirt away
Thunder roars his agreement
As the lightning has her say
Grey Clouds
Hot, sweltering days
Given way overnight to
Grey, heavy rainclouds
