The beauty of water
Cascading from the sky.
I look and I ponder,
The storm is nigh.
The pitter patter on the ceiling
Lulls to sleep.
A rainy day I love,
A rainy day I’ll keep.
Droplets of moisture
Falling from the ceiling of the sky.
Such awe and wonder I behold,
And I smile in the rain.

"Rain is one of my favorite things, and it's somewhat unusual to love it so much, so I use it as an inspiration point."
