An Ode To Rain

An Ode to rain

A symphony on my rooftop plays
lulling me into dreamy haze,
quietly before the crescendo of giants bowling out my window
Oh how I love the rain in all it’s thunder

What once was desolate desert swarms life
Put ease to natures pain and strife
Quenched eternal thirst below earth’s seeds begin to grow
Oh how I love rain the way it nurtures

Tree leaves drip heavens sweet elixir
Droplets drip drop collect swell
Fresh earth, Petrichor my favorite smell

Roads grow slick, steer, slip, then slide
Crooked cars crash then collide
Silly people in a rush go here and there
Don’t consider rain has a death stare
