Rain on the window

This is a poem for anyone who has ever had rain on the window

a soft tapping of the cold rain
could be a few drops of the water
or it may be a thunder storm
the kind that makes the room dark
nonetheless, it is rain

it may seem cold and dark
but it also makes you feel protected 
you are out of the rain
and watching as it washes away the troubles of the day
it is a reminder that things can always get better
but they sure can get worse

rain on the window

    Why does the rain 
    tap on the window
    when you can't feel it?
    Why will it remind you of 
    the dew drops dancing on the grass blades in early spring,
    of August's ocean breeze spraying saltwater in your hair, 

  • Empty

    The person is empty 
    the person with no identity 
    the one with no personality 
    Who doesn't now what yesterday was like or the day before
    Know one seems to know this person anymore 
  • Understanding

    Somewhere in my past
    a sunny snow day haunts me
    the serenity 
    Feels too cliche 
    to enjoy
    I remember the glances out of the window
    on a day that finally feels like spring 
    because winter can be long and dark
