Upon Listening to the Rain Fall
Upon listening to the rain fall heavily
Torrents of water pounding against glass
Like wet pebbles
They assault my window
No mere shower from heaven
Instead a loud crashing explosion
The sky erupting like a geyser
Water running down grey-shadowed streets
My heart pounds in time with the rain's fury
I think of you and the times we were alone
No mere shower from heaven
Instead a loud, crashing explosion of emotion
And the rain continues her assault
As I listen to the downpour and the beating of my heart.
