I want to hear the rain again
July 7, 2014
Lying in bed
Rain was the forecast for tonight
Waiting for the rain
The inevitable, yet inaudible pitter-patter
I want to hear the rain again
Quiet stillness
Then the twang of a cloud’s tear
Music on a tin roof
The rousing, riveting roar of rain that shakes the house
Leaves me wanting to hear the rain again
O, enchanting rain
Soothe my heart’s tears with your rhythmic song
I miss your sound
Our tin-less roof withholds your harmony from my ears
Oh, how I want to hear the rain again
