Speak in Rain

Soft shall be the calling of flowering trees that speak in rain

So it is now as I watch by the side of the way

Listening to the softest drops attain

A hush of silence as they fade

These flowers alone carry a mysterious splendor

Passing surprise into what I know

Pouring their calling out to hearts in wonder

Breathing new life as they go

In my heart of hearts, I hold a love to hear this call

Softly speaking with truth so sweet

Pouring out, as each drop falls

From flowering trees

In crystal sheets

Soft shall be my reply to flowering trees that speak in rain

As I brush my cheek against their splendor

I will always want their drops of calling to remain

As I watch by the side of the way

In silent wonder

Some beautiful, gentle and fluent thoughts... I was especially struck by 'flowering trees/ In crystal sheets' and the soft delight of 'brush my cjheek against their soplenor'... A poem to enjoy and reflect upon, letting its words bring pleasure - and 'silent wonder'.

Your poem is a completley portriat of peace. I think that your rhythem and rhyme mirrored the soft pouring of the drops from the trees. Also, your voice has great depth and character to it. With it and the placid and awed tone of the piece, you capture a moment of serenity.

You have watered my heart this evening. Thank you for sharing.
