Raindrops

Carpe Diem #1082 Raindrops (Chopin)

staccato  beat
of raindrops on the tin roof
a soothing melody

~~~

after the storm
raindrops drip from the eves
gentle reprise

Let the Rain Kiss You

Carpe Diem #1034 let the rain kiss you

I have always loved the feel of a gentle rain, the sound of it tapping on the roof.  Even now in my 50’s I venture out barefoot to splash in  puddle or two.

“Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby.” Langston Hughes

last of gentle rain
still clinging to eves
parched earth waits

~~~

raindrops beat
upon my upturned face
summer joy
