Rain is me, sleeping soundly during the night
Rain is stepping outside and watching water droplets hit my palms
Rain is lush green leaves soaked from downpour
Rain is opening the front door and breathing in damp, sweet smelling air
Rain is pressing my hand to the cold panes of glass on my window and watching the drops of rain trickle down as they form puddles on the window seal
Rain is walking to the mailbox barefoot as my clothes are drenched
Rain is when it’s all over and all that’s left is muddy footprints and a crystal clear sky
Rain is me, sleeping soundly at night
Beautiful.
I like the repeated image in the first and last lines.
You made this piece come alive! It had almost had all the five seances in it. The imagery is perfection! I really liked the sentence “Rain is when it’s all over and all that’s left is muddy footprints and a crystal clear sky.”
“Rain is me” I like that opening statement and how you repeated rain every sentence. It gives the poem a deeper vibe.
I liked all of the imagery in this post. You had very good description and clearly stated your thoughts about rain!
I like this blog post because you used great imagery and detail in your writing. When i read this i can see the images in my head.
I love the imagery, how I can see, feel, and even smell the rain. I also enjoy the opening sentence.
