deaf’ning rain as thundering cymbals ring
dancing deftly upon the sill
dripping, ripping, dripping, filling
streams of significance on brushstrokes of pain
covering the panes, revealing the ache

droplets of convergence, a milieu
of grandeur, simple yet strained
as teardrops in windstorms blown
blown with west winds warm
on the east’s cold face

and the storm grows thunderous
as raindrops fall, haloed in nimbus
