RAIN

RAIN

A Poem by Marie
"

falling rain...

"


Rain, with silver, silken grace,

Falls in folds of silver lace,

Holds the sky in soft embrace

As the thirsty earth gives praise.

Awesome imagery.
I greatly enjoyed the delicacy I felt from your view of rain. It's one of those things that gets taken for granted, but the joy you have when you see it is full blown appreciation.
Great work!

Thanks. Most of my poetry is meant to create images.
The first two lines especially are nothing short of perfection. The enchantment is undoubtedly enhanced by the alliteration.

Thank you.
Wonderful write. There's so much focus in this that I can feel the exact tempo of the rain you describe. You've got a real knack for nature writing. Your poetry is pure escapism for a city-boy like myself!

Thanks. I too live in the city.
This is simply stunning... how it awakens the heart and mind to the beauty and wonder of rainfall... and enchants the soul to this singular moment...

A great description of rain in just four lines. The alliteration and rhyming make it just roll off the tongue.
