As the storm clouds gather bringing rain to these blue skies the joy of anticipation is reflected in my eyes The wind outside is blowing a sharp bite to the air as the rain approaches I can almost feel it's dare The rain taunts me splashing to the ground knowing I can't resist that lovely Drip-Drop sound Thunder laughs across the sky, as I rush out to play the rain kisses me in greeting, just what I needed today! -SEA- * I love the rain and look forward to it every time.  |

~Hey you,...very neat piece here. There are only two ways I like the rain,...one, (at night) when it's super windy and I get to lay in bed listening to it all,...OR if it's super hot outside and I get to play in it. Yay. Loved this. *Peace. [This message has been edited by SpitFire (edited 11-08-2000).] |

Lady Sea, being in a place where winter presents no snow I gotta tell ya I learned to luv the rain too... Something about the mist of rain or even the downpour against windowpanes... Anyhow, enough said, I like your poem! Coco |

SpitFire~ yes, I do love watching it and listening to it, very soothing......but more times than not, you'll find me out playing in it Sunny1~ ok, now I'm jealous! Wow! I'd love to see where you live..... Coco~ sometimes we get snow here, it's just above our elevation most of the winter, but I just like the rain better.... Slushy Mushy~ you make me laugh  Circe is smiling JWesley~ I love the lightning and thunder storms there in Texas.....makes my blood race Walt~ As a lefty myself, that's one trick I haven't thought of, but it sounds so funny! Make me laugh you do! YUH! -SEA (also known as CIRCE) |

This was great. I loved this poem. Though I thought it was going to end in a different way. I thought it was going to be some sort of dare that the gloomy environment casted upon you and in the end you'd be attacked by thunder. Don't ask me why.....just how my mind words i guess. great poem!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Sea, the rain is wonderful, such a calming effect on me...I love splashing in puddles, which usually is not appreciated by anyone close by...but what the heck...thats what puddles are for(and looking at the sky reflected through them). Love the feeling this poem brings. Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart. R. fox |

SEA, In the words of Creedance Clearwater Revival "Who'll stop the rain", you gave such a beautiful reflection of the joy rain gives. Simply beautiful. "as I rush out to play the rain kisses me in greeting, just what I needed today!" Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Your title is the story of my life! *grins* I think I'd go for a bit of snow over the rain, though. And a mountain to put it on. And a snowboard on my feet. Look what ya gone and done! Now I can't wait til it's January. (I'm goin to WinterPark...it's a secret) |

the rain kisses me in greeting, beautiful words...I prefer the soft gentle kisses of winter white..but the rain is nice, too when not so heavy as it was here yesterday and throughout the night. It does have a cleansing effect. thank you for sharing such wonderful words ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Rain is a difficult subject to be original with, you did a great job with this one! I could almost hear the pitter-patter! "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |
