for me, rain is one of the most sensual things to write about.
what if everyone posted their poems about rain?
like a rain happening.......
here goes.
.............
and i am shattered.
desperately so.
it just about killed me.
feeling my heart again like that after all that time.
i left fragments of me in that park. that night. in the rain.
after that wet, velvet kiss that changed the world.

there is no other way.
and there never was.
and there never was.

or a rain coat
or frantic running to escape
or special shoes
Rain in Seattle, however, is almost a given
people don't use umbrellas
maybe they don't own them?
or if they do, they don't bother to carry them around
people walk slowly, they don't run to escape it
students walk around in a soggy state and think nothing of it
they let it come down on them
and don't worry about being wet
they feel free to walk around with limp, bedraggled hair
Rain in Texas is torrential
like a tropical storm
it comes down in sheets
sideways
noisy
with huge gusts of wind
and lightening
and monstrous thunder
it's exciting
but people usually stay indoors
to avoid electrocution
of this rainy day?
Sitting here with my baby girls.
Twirling my finger around Julia's curls.
Nothing much to really do.
Play and hug, kisses too.
Smiling and playing peek-a-boo.
What are the promises made,
of this rainy day?
Holding their hearts in my unsteady hands.
Wishing for a future bright enough to understand.
As the rain cries from the sky,
and angel's tears all run dry.
After our falling out I'd stay up listening to the rain,
I'd welcome it to wash away my pain.
I'd stand there, letting it, like the world, fall on me.
It cleared my mind, it gave clarity to what I'd see.
It's the only thing that comes close to me anymore.
The only one that listens is this downpour.
So I cry to it asking for help so I can let go,
It changes too, so I cry out to the snow.
But no matter the season, its always there.
It always listens, it finds me, it cares.
It's always there to cover my tears,
It's always there to drown out my fears.
I'm beginning to sink beneath the mud.
It doesn't bother me, its my brother, my blood.
The rain, the mud, swallows my pain.
It swallows me, so I can live again.
I used to go walking in the rain
It was always something I enjoyed
I'd just let it pour on me
I'd ponder
I'd wander
Until I was soaked
And chilled to the bone
And my head hurt
And my feet hurt
And my heart hurt
And I was too tired to go on
Then I'd return home
Only then did your embrace almost feel warm
Red Mulch and Rainstorms (08/02/05)
She came riding in on a red lightning bolt,
and yet,
she was still calm before the thunderheads burst,
pouring life into the ground,
nourishing my hard day's work.
My thumbs are still pink, much to my dismay,
but hope,
and Mother Nature seem to be on my side today.
Thanks, alicefell (but then she picked herself up and now alicerises )! Don't know if what I posted was quite what you were looking for but thanks for making us think about the rain. I love to fall asleep to a good, hard rain--it's so comforting. Makes you want to snuggle into your warm jammies, drink hot cocoa and read a good book.
hey there. are you kidding? it was awesome - i love your out in the cold. yes, love the rain..........
(especially this summer, here in TO....)
and there never was.

Open the window let the rain in
it will wash away the gray
it's not want you needed today
Open the window let the rain in
sunshine's overrated anyway
yesterday is still here
it won't go away
Let your mind rest
heed your heart
it will send you to that higher art
where everything plays it’s part
but if we can't look outside
everything is fear everything is dark
but just...
Open the window let the rain in
it will wash away the gray
it's not what you needed today
Open the window let the rain in
sunshine's overrated anyway
yesterday is still here
it won't go away
lonely chorus
reverberates through your head
wont’ let you out bed
you stay in your cave instead
Can't you see the clock is ticking
And babe
you've wasted so much time
sinking into all your muddy grime
yeah, it happens to us all sometime
You brush off happiness like sand on your feet
why are you so afraid to smile
is the comfort of your desolation all worthwhile?
Open the window let the rain in
