Rain

.

Heaven's tears
Heard only by

.

Drummers at your window
Dancers on your roof
Eaves troughs' humming
Birds' wings strumming
Wet dogs keeping a beat
Nature's symphony goes solo

.

Heaven's tears
Seen only by

.

Leaves dancing in the trees
Tall grasses bowing down
Greying veil
Dirt sails
Drops jumping on the streets
Puddles appearing magically

.

Heaven's tears
Felt by

.

Damp streams down your back
Fingers tapping on your head
Face dripping
Tongue licking
Feet getting soaking wet
Clothes clinging like a wet sack

.

Heaven's tears
Alive with smells

.

Cleansing of the air
Soil absorbing nature's life
Blooms alive
Aroma overdrive
New life breaking through
Natures brew, so fair

.

Heaven's tears
Speaking to you

.

Of the cleansing of our Earth
40 days and 40 nights
Animals two
People few
Raven sent, but never returned
White dove, olive branch, rebirth

.
