Tin Roof
February 22, 2014
The silence of rain
On a tin roof
Is not silent at all
But deafening
And with its roar it blocks
All of the noise
That otherwise would be heard
The silence of the snow
In February
Is so quiet it is
Suffocating.
What was beautiful in
December
Now traps me
And I long for
The summer silence
Of rain on a tin roof.
