That Rain Poem

Sitting in some car in a forgotten parking lot

Grey marks the skies

Lush green plants peeping in

The wildlife of concrete and paint makes the perfect background

For

Little ***** of liquid heaven falling on my windscreen

And some music to complete the scene

Each guitar line synchronises with each raindrop

Each blast of power thunder hits hard like heavy metal

But the soft clouds, the gentle ebb and flow lull me to sleep

Whispering, persuading me to dream

But I really don't want to miss this shard of time

I never want to lose little moments like these

 

A silver raindrop is born by landing on my car

Crash landing, rather

The bubbling pocket of mystery travels down

Swerving and slamming into other fellow pockets in crime

It's life cycle completes when it reaches the bottom

It races to it's death, unable to stop gravity's plan for it

Each drop morphs into another, making a wave

The rain weaves an intricate web of waves

All strutting their sparkly magic before me

I sense a metaphor for humanity creeping in

Millions of crescendos growing about

Too concerned with their internal politics to worry about others

But I stay focused on the beauty all around

 

I wonder if heaven has rainy days

If so, this must be one of them
