She's out to drown you. ;) I'd give my pronoun personification like the rest of the poem and make it "her" in preference to "its". Just my penny's worth of thought. But the poem is pretty nigh perfect as it is.
It's smoother than somebody's career :)
Beautifully penned... hope to hold that loved rain I hand.., but after cuddling us like this, they simply slips or leave:)
I see it allegorically...the rain being trouble...maybe in a relationship...and it is saying....stay and face me, the love is worth it.
I love short pieces like this....so much room left for the reader.

A modest, but highly imaginative Free Verse that creates a moment's sensation most all will recognize and relate to in one personal way or another.
I recall happy, sad, and mournful times standing in the rain … excellently rendered and presented, my very skilled Friend.
Your title is deceptive, as it leads one to believe they're going to receive the description of rain … for this reason, it should be titled simply, Rain... in light blue and bold letters, so we'll be completely surprised and even more pleased. Your use of tildes as decorative holders is like eye candy that reeks of good taste … maybe, make them blue and bold, too? Worth a look-see, eh? Great line-breaks, needs befitting artwork to make it the virtual little masterpiece it deserves to be.
Anyway, you know I love it, like do all your work! ⁓ Richard🖌
