Quelling Droplets

I sit here trying to silence my mind
From the chaotic days, many events
Letting go of the trivial trials
That have transpired across this day

I let the pattering of the rain quell stress
Allowing it to wash away the ire
Becoming more relaxed deep inside
As the mind is engulfed by rain

Droplets tapping the shingled roof
It becomes drenched with sky water
As heavy clouds release their clear tears
Dripping with nature’s liquid renewal

Melodic with the soft constant splashing
On the saturated glistening ground
My mind softly wanders to pleasant thoughts
Of watching the rain trickle freely.

We all try to silence our mind at times, which usually lead to more questions than answers, but there can't be many better ways than to listening to the rain and letting the pinter patter melt away the noise from within.
Being Scottish however, I usually hear rain anyway,, real or some evil tinnitus, which keeps me awake anyway by making me rush to the loo, so I usually tend to listen to the mediaeval baebes playing low on my phone.
It's so good at emptying my mind snd sending me to dreamysleeps that I still haven't a clue what the complete albums sound like! 😃
I heard they even put Enya to sleep!😀

I listen to meditation music at night when writing sometimes

Rain and its sounds are soothing indeed; it transport us to many possibilities. You write beautifully!

Thank you. The rain truly is soothing and can let our minds calm and drift.

I agree wholeheartedly. You are welcome

Sometimes rain can be refreshing, cleansing, sometimes it washes away too much.
Your imagination moves effortlessly from image to image, trickling words onto the page.
A pleasing poem.

The rain is soothing and allows my mind to calm especially when it rains at night

[andrew mitchell]

Nice write PB, I like the rain and how it takes your mind away in a day dream if only momentarily with the pitter patter being so repetitive and constant creating that scene.

I’m a lover of rain and thunderstorms but I also enjoy the warm sun on my face. There is something about the rain especially at night the is soothing.

I'm not a big fan of rain except;;; when it is the soft pitter patter that comes in relief of an endless timespan of too hot, too dry, warm weather
then it is a most definitely pleasurably happening

rain is free...the sun often costs us with its surprise rise...
and heart's burning, imprisoned in grief or regret.
