When the Rain Spoke
The day it rained
the world was quiet drenched in the heaven’s tears
the day it rained
I couldn’t recall the day, the month or year
the day it rained
thunder screamed so loud my ears would never hear
the day it rained
my tears mixed in with all I could fear
the day it rained
I listened to whispers of all who were near
the day it rained
I felt I danced and the dew cheered
the day the rain stopped
I went back to hide from the rising sun
the day it shined
I knew the rain would always come
the day it shined
I felt so sad the dry ground broke
the day it shined
I sat in silence for I miss when the rain spoke
About this poem
These past three year with the whole “covid fiasco thing” I felt a big connection with rain, so I began to write poems and since then I haven’t stopped.
