Run, rain, run,
in my eyes
on my face
in my place
Drop, droplet, drop,
with a ring
on a string
of my heart
Blow, wind, blow,
through the leaves
in the wings
of my soul
Shine, sun, shine,
with a hope
at the height
of my life

This is great. I particularly liked:

I'm experiencing the rain you speak of today.
Just lovely!
Thank you, Paul. Yes, we too had a rainy day yesterday...
Thank you, Lisa!
It definitely has the rhytm of the slow dripping of an autumn rain.
I liked this small and easy poem.
NICE!
Beautiful, Vesper! Perfect simplicity.
xoxoxo
What a beautiful poem, it suited the picture perfectly.
:)
Beautiful in it's simplicity! Images that we all can relate to.
Thank you, Szelsofa. Despite the dark, wet day, I was much happier when I finished this little poem and, in the end, the rain stopped and the sun came out too.
Bernita, thank you!
Glad you liked it, Vanilla! Thank you! xoxoxo
Akasha, thank you! It sounded a bit like a song in my head...
Thank you, Aine. Yes, simple things, no philosophy, just some thoughts on a rainy morning...
Your poem matched the picture charmingly.
That's a really striking poem, Vesper. Well done.
And that photo...wow! I wish I took it.
Thanks, Bernard! :-)
Wow, Jason, thank you! You should visit that website - they have some incredible photos.

C.S., thank you so much. Certainly, you can show it to your teacher friends - I am very flattered...
I love this delicate, dripping rhythm here. Those are my favorite kinds of poems--when form and meaning connect so cleanly.
Fabulous poem, Vesper! And the photo is so evocative. :)
Thank you, Sarah! :-) Yes, it had a rhythm that played like rain in my heart - but not a sad rain... :-)
Beautiful!
Ah so much I have missed. I shall have to come back again and catch up.
Beautiful photo too.
