Rain awakes me from my sleep
lashing at my window panes
raindrops sparkling like diamonds
the sound I love now etched upon my brain...

I know I shouldn't but I really can't resist
and soon enough I'm soaked right through
pale moonlight lends to the eerie atmosphere
the rain splashing down reminds me of you...

From somewhere I hear distant laughter
and I wonder if someone else is mad like me
a clap of thunder and I decide to come back in
suddenly awake and full of endless energy...

Standing in the shower I had this crazy thought
if this was daytime and the sun was almost out
I'd still be loving every minute laughing at my crazy ways
cause there'd be a rainbow shining of that I have no doubt...

RG,
What I want to know is were you dressed or undressed? there's a big difference you know.
Enjoyed the poem.

You forgot to mention Snoops looking at you through the window and thinking : "That's it ! Mum went nuts" ... ... Lovely poem, I can close my eyes and see the picture right in front of me.
