THE SOUND OF RAIN

little pleasures

You hear the first raindrops against the bedroom window
You were asleep, now you're awake
Don't move
Listen
Enjoy the tapping sound of anticipation
Falling teardrops turning into sprinkles of mist eventually becoming a hard rain
And then...in the distance...the sound of thunder
Ecstasy
Now... back to sleep

Coincidentally happen with me one day ago! It's like you've described that night of mine but totally unknown.

A well structured and lovely poem by a talented poet...

[‘Thoughts In Time..]

The most wonderful sound of rolling thunder - as kids we used to count how long the spaces inbetween the claps were and the further away it moved the quieter it got- live thunderstorms and rains- love the smell of rain falling on earth- fresh and pure cleansing the earth and hopefully cleansing souls - best place to be is all snug and curled up safe and secure and just ‘be’... lovely words took me back to places in time🌹

This poem describes the ideal night for me to sleep. You have written this lovely.

I can recollect many times I sat on the front porch and watched the rain. So beautiful were the swirls when a wind blew the droplets helter skelter and made waves on the street. Impatient, we often ran out into it so we could splash in the puddles.

At night the swishing of the rain through the branches of the trees, sounded as though music.

Thank you for the memories you stirred - Dave

The sound of rain varies with the time of the day, the night rain brings cool winds and gets you up from your bed. Iam glad you finished your writing and then went back to sleep, you caught the magic of the moment In your writing, I can almost see the rain against the window!

Exactly! I adore the rain so the title just kind of sucked me in.

I love listening to the rain! Your words simply tell it like it is ~ one should enjoy the little things in life ... relax & take in the essence of it all. I hope the rain lulled you into a restful sleep my friend.

Take care & enjoy your day ~ I think we have more rain on the way. 😏

Blessings, 🙏
