Rain The rain sweeps down upon my face And covers it with bleeds of lace Dropping off my nose and chin Making rivers on my skin The rain is warm the clouds are gray A gentle breeze in steady play The rain impairs horizons view But when it’s gone the world will new The sun will come to light the day And flowers open up and stay And butterflies will fly once more To drink the nectar in the core And I will walk the valley’s green To play among the unforeseen And say a little prayer of grace This rain that bled upon my face Come walk with me in rains renew Under wonders sky of blue |

Well, Seymour I am amazed! I really like this. Excellent write. I am not usually one for nature poems but this is a cut above. It's going in my library. "The rain is warm the clouds are gray A gentle breeze in steady play" I just love those lines. In fact, I would have posted the whole thing again if I could have. Keep up the good work! "The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun." One God by The Beautiful South |

"And I will walk the valley’s green To play among the unforeseen And say a little prayer of grace This rain that bled upon my face Come walk with me in rains renew Under wonders sky of blue" A wonderful write Sy! It's raining up here in Canada right now.. want to come up here and we'll do a little singin' and dancin' in the rain? Just like Fred Astaire! Have a bright and beautiful day! ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ Autumn, the year's last loveliest smile~ |

I'll come walk with you anytime, Seymour. Sounds like your path is a lot better than mine. And, although I try to change this path, it always turns out to be the same. |

Oh, Mr. T., I nearly missed this mist of a poem! I absolutely LOVE it! ~ and that is why I am tucking it away for a rainy day, so to speak! One of the loveliest poems on rain that I have had the pleasure of reading! EA |

Hello Seymour! I feel like I just took that walk with you! Beautifully written! Nature is a wonder to feel and behold! Wondering if this was inspired by sight seen or from the mind's eye... just curious. ...Namaste... ~Moonkist~ Freedom Now |

Hi Seymour. A very nice piece of reading. Although it reads like a nature poem I think there is a more to it then that. Like a personal journey fom somewhere to somewhere. Am I wrong? |
