#rainy
When I’m sitting in the sun
I’m thinking about the rain,
About silver threads on windowpanes,
a soft and steady refrain.
The warmth upon my shoulders feels too open,
far too bright,
And I long for muted afternoons wrapped gently in gray light.
About how I will always wish to be alone watching the sky cry,
Tracing every falling tear that slips from cloud to sky.
Where thunder hums a lullaby low across the air,
And every drop is proof that even heavens need repair.
The sun speaks loud in golden rays that dazzle and demand,
But rain arrives on quiet feet to cool the waiting land.
It taps upon the rooftops with a patient, tender tune,
And turns the restless afternoon to twilight far too soon.
In rain the world grows smaller, softer at the seams,
A blurred and watercolor wash of half-remembered dreams
No crowd can find me in that hush,
no noise can remain
I am a shadow at the glass, counting drops like pain.
So let the sunlight blaze and boast across an open plain;
My heart is in the solitude that gathers with the rain.

happiness is not simple
in my eyes, it's more than
the perfect sunny day, or
a favorite ice cream. It's
that, so much more, and
it's hard to explain.
you make it from the ground up
and when you're laying brick,
sweating and lonely, it's hard
but when you finish, under a roof,
you'll find yourself more able
to enjoy the rainy days.

and
My sister, Delores Marie, she & I
a we share domatia memories, we
disneyifieddementiasprecognosis us,
gaseous we both laugh at thunder words
as make ourselves agree with happy times,
I found a negative,
from Gallup Studio, on Beale,
The Rose Garden, and a wall to sit on,
once was a Florist, too, maybe, both, probably
----- yes, I remember and she adds mattering facts
she remembers the pose, in a dress our mother made,
and we both remember momma, but she sooner than me,
we both think she did her best to keep us happy as could be.
We may think we know, best believing boin' in d'bosums be
some holygnosishitscary as well, hello poet et al re al wisers
desires wished was tested, is it so, or do we just imagine better
and be better used as single points perceptible in jello time slow,
pinch a shimmering spider kit held perceivably tied to my porch,
since so long ago I cannot say for sure, but I love that strand of
mere baby spider flyaway silk shimmering in sunny days, remembered
Childhood memories go last, they keep one smiling, as recalled, what
was it we called, or you called,
or maybe it was just me, once
that Sunday Bright White Shirt beneath the pomegranate tree,
as ripe as it could be, ah, did that not happen every time?

The rain dances
on my skin
I pause
and it feels
enough.

Rainy days make me contemplate
What if I took her warm embrace
What if we shared our dreams and fears;
It is the cold that whispers,
Lonely tunes of an old radio,
Waking up emotions of faded hue;
The thought of you and me
How lovely would it be
If I could lean on your shoulder
As the weather turns colder.

I don’t know if you ever listened to the sky
when it gets hungry.
It growls.
It rumbles.
Even roams.
It sits in the dark,
contemplating what it wants.
Then,
Boom.
Thunder hits
without warning.
At some point,
we've all been there
hungry, with no idea
what we want to eat,
no one to ask,
everything sounding good.
Thunder hits again.
The hush left to whisper
between lips,
******* in air.
It’s enough to make you mad.
The rain doesn’t wait.
The lightning
not knowing where to begin.
Hunger waits for release.
I am the moment
that waits for you
in-between

The cloud is crumbling,
Rainy day ahead,
The air is soaked
The flavour of heavy soil.
New life is born
In the depths of the merciful Earth
We are all Her sons and daughters.

Mentally expecting the worst
Everything that could go wrong will
But what if it doesn’t?
Still, my list of to-dos gets longer
Running from my problems so I don’t have to deal with it
If my phone rings, I don’t answer
I prefer to keep my distance
Wishing I could disappear
Or that I didn’t exist
Maybe it’s time I get some rest
Can’t enjoy the moments
It’s always what’s next?

My income is tentative,
My money comes with the snow,
I thought I was getting paid,
But the rain stole my job.

Alam kong umpisa na ng tag-init diyan.
O baka lingid sa kaalaman ko'y
sa susunod na linggo pa o kalaunan.
Ngunit kung paano ang tag-init dyan
o gaano kainit ay hindi ko alam.
Paano ang tag-init dyan sa inyo?
Gaano ka-init ang mainit diyan sa bahay mo?
Sana'y naaarawan ka ng sapat at tama,
sana'y palaging malusog ka't masaya.
Alam mo bang tag-ulan na rito ng Hunyo?
O maaaring para sayo ay patak pa lang,
o marahil mga mumunting tulo.
Ngunit kung gaano kaginaw
o paano ang tag-ulan ay hindi mo alam.
Gaano kaginaw, gaya ba ng taas ng baha?
Paano ang patak ng ulan, tulad ba ng luha?
Sana'y bagyuhin at tangayin ang mga mali,
sana'y mawala na ang alaalang gipit.
Alam kong tag-init na pag Hunyo sa inyo.
Ngunit alam mo ba talaga kung gaano ka-init
kung ikaw sana'y narito sa silid ko?
Alam mo ba ang tunay na tag-init,
gayong di mo pa nararanasan sa bisig ko?
Hindi mo malalaman kung gaano kainit ang mainit
hangga't ika'y wala sa tabi ko.
Ang tunay na tag-init ay nasa aking piling.
Alam mo nang tag-ulan na rito ng Hunyo.
Ngunit kung malalaman mo nga kung gaano kaginaw,
tulad siguro ng paghagkan sa bloke ng yelo.
Alam mo ba ang tunay na tag-ulan,
tila mga patak ng luha kung mawawala ako.
Malalaman mo kung gaano kaginaw ang maginaw
kung mawawala ako sa buhay mo.
Ang tunay na tag-ulan ay ang aking kawalan.

The milk coffee skies of Paris in May,
make the Seine river look insanely gray.
At sunrise it’s quiet -
the traffic’s mostly bikes
our digs are luxurious and private
my school stress is waning - it’s nice
I want to get up sigh
I don’t want to get up,
We’ll vote on it later -
I think it’s a tossup.
What will today bring?
More thunderstorms and kisses?
grin I hope so.
I pull the covers up.
Peter stretches and asks,
“what are you doing?”
I chuckle, and say,
“Come and find me,”
when he does,
Paris is fun in May

At least these drops of water are falling all around me,
Instead of from me.

It is a rainy day
I walk
It washes away my fear,
I feel I am letting go.
It is a rainy day
I feel my worries
Wash away from my face,
My wrinkles are being erased.
It is a rainy day
I know
Healing takes time,
But time heals the deepest wounds.
It is a rainy day,
It is dark
But I feel a spark of light
In my heart.
It is a rainy day
And I know
How hard it has been to let go.
Now I heal
As the rain washes my wounds away.
I heal as the rain pours down on me.

Close your eyes,
I whisper in your ear,
when you think of forever,
what do you see my dear,
or rather who do you see,
right through your tears,
through the uncertainty of time,
and the path you will take,
who is your partner,
your guide as you are theirs,
I asked you this question once before,
a rainy day on the second floor,
tell me your answer once again.

Drip drop, never stops
Puddles formed are now the norm
Splash splosh, day's a wash

rainy like my eyes
lately i despise
being alone
i don't like being alone
shaky like my knees
when i tell you, please,
fall in love with me
won't you fall in love with me

You are a butterfly
that flies and perches
on a corpse flower
throughout the rainy season
in December.

I'm raining
The sky is crying,
Part of the season.
