Unusual Rain...

It was an unusual rain,

Stormy gusts and cold drops on shoulders,

Last day all of us were wearing,

The gear that we loved so much,

 

Eyes red, bulged, teary,

He said the Heavens should cry,

What I saw was a little kid,

He was right... the heavens did...

 

Those smell of wet clay on the sidelines

And relaxed pitch black roads,

In front of something that would never again be,

Adorned by the sodium lamps that made it surreal,

 

And now on such rainy, rainy nights,

When they tell me, what’s so new?

I don’t understand their frowzy lines,

For all my emotions get reduced to a few...

This is very blueing . More like a picture than a poem .. has a damp feeling ... but these are not negatives mind it .. this is what the poem is about .. and if the poem has been able to make the reader feel the emotions portrayed in it , then it is indeed a very good poem .

the rain can induce so many different emotions in people, some hate it, some see it as free (me ha) - a nature display at its best - here the idea of heaven crying is great, I always like when I see that - and the connection with tears, a connection overlooked perhaps, nice!!

[Coyote Poetry]

Rain is a blessing. Without the rain we would be a race with no food. I like the story in the poem. Age is a blessing and disappointment. Need to be able to dance and sing in the rain till we are old and gray. A excellent poem.
