Let it Rain

This song just got published (released) in Europe I thoroughly enjoyed working on this with Constant Goddard of whom wrote the music he is a true maestro:)

Let It Rain

 

Stroll this sphere

Of souls

Strides unclear

-ly shown

strain and fear

Take toll

Atmosphere

Gets cold

Scattered tears

Take hold

Stealing years

Untold

 

But

 

I…

 Can see

The art

Run free

cry …

the plea’s

of hearts

decree

spy…

the scenes

impart

of dreams

fly

set free

rain art

on me

 

let it

 

rain

dearest Robert... the ground needs moisture to grow in
Mother Natures Womb to be prepared to appear in Spring
with blossoms of blue eyes and sweet smiles... little ears
to hear the music of the birds and a mouth to partake of
Mother's milk. The Art of Rembrandt has touched my heart.
Blessings to you... be well and safe. gently, Pat

[Robert Trakofler]

Good morning Patria:) I hope the song made you smile a little!

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Robert... I am sitting in a big overstuffed Chair by our Sleigh Bed. Roger is still sleeping, so I will listen to the music later (I do not use or have "ear phone plugs" to listen quietly. "should be an interesting song". my pleasure, Pat 'top of the morning to you'. Pat

[Gee]

Tis a beautifully put together piece Robert. Well done to both :))
Hope you are well and enjoying this festive season

[Robert Trakofler]

Thanks Gee! I am sitting in front of my keyboard wearing two layers of clothes my furnace just broke Christmas morning LOL it is 12 degrees outside and of course nothing was open yesterday so I had to steal some wood from in front of a convenience store to keep warm (ish) I ordered the parts to my furnace but that wont be here for days LOL so this "dark winter" just got a bit colder! but i am doing fine the scenery is beautiful with a fresh coat of snow and my morning coffee is nice and warm:) time to go get some writing in my friend

[Gee]

Never rains, Robert, never rains ...
Look forward to your frozen offerings :)
Take care

[Ankita Dwivedi]

every beat danced in my head , i closed my eyes and yours words here ... they portrayed a very vivid and honest picture of the world we live in .. outstanding poetry , sir .. hope you are safe and doing amazing .. take care :)

[Robert Trakofler]

Thank you Ankita I hope it rains art on you:)

[Cherrie Palmer]

Oo, so cool. Can I get your autograph:)

[Robert Trakofler]

LOL for you anything dear Cherrie

[emmajoy]

Hand on heart, ear Bunny, I sat h olding my breath the first time i heard your song.. .. Second time, I cried.. still am . .

Your words, the music, the sum total ~ is Heartfekt Beautiful.

WE are meant to cry.. RAIN is meant to fall... never mind the scientific reasons... purity is part of selves and the All Around. They bring, give and leave a washing away of debris we carry in our being.

Thank you, dear poet and very true gentleman.

( I read Michael's poem as suggest, is wonderful )

[Robert Trakofler]

thanks Emmy:) I really pushed this song to get released because I felt the message was a particularly poignant one for these times:) I think you caught the drift:) and your tears are like a giant hug to me! you are among my very first friends here on the café you have all had such an impact on my writing and my soul so I wanted you to meet Michael and do a little of your magic on him too

[andrew mitchell]

Wow I’m speechless .excellent work, great reciting excellent music production. Robert , the true artist.

[Robert Trakofler]

Thanks Andrew!!!! Constant is the true Maestro I was just riding his musical wave:) he writes music like a poet channels words

[Annette Pisano-Higley]

"set free
rain art
on me
let it
rain"
Ahhhh-cleansed, inspired, renewed!! RBB, your wonderfully electric poem reminds me of a Who song sung by Roger Daltry.. Great musicality, form, rhyme, cadence, dramatic pauses- all made me feel like standing in the torrents with upturned face. Raindrops washing away all the effluvia and white noise. Yes. Loved this my friend!

[Robert Trakofler]

Thanks Annette:) I really enjoyed working on this one

[barleygirl]

Truly the most amazing thing you've come up with, to date! Wow! This is a great song! For you to sing your verses makes all the difference, compared to your verbal poetry readings. This way of doing it really shows off your voice. I'm always surprised at how slowly you recite/sing your poetry . . . much different than how I might read it in my jackrabbit way . . . listening slows me down & makes me focus on every few words, the way you sing it (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Robert Trakofler]

thanks margie I am so excited this song got released:)

[barleygirl]

I'm proud of you for your determined efforts to take your creativity where it makes you feel the best!

[Robert Trakofler]

well according to Constant it is doing well in germany:? perhaps i should learn how to sing it in german LOL

[barleygirl]

German is not a very poetic language. The words are so long, it would take you 2 minutes to sing one word!

[Robert Trakofler]

just in case you were wondering what the lyrics would sound like...
Lass es regnen
read morejust in case you were wondering what the lyrics would sound like...
Lass es regnen

Bummeln Sie durch diese Kugel
Von Seelen
Schritte unklar
-ly gezeigt
Anstrengung und Angst
Tribut fordern
Atmosphäre
Wird kalt
Verstreute Tränen
Ergreifen Sie
Jahre stehlen
Untold

Aber

ICH…
Kann sehen
Die Kunst
Ausleben
Schrei …
die Klagegründe
von Herzen
Dekret
Spion…
die Szenen
vermitteln
der Träume
Fliege
freisetzen
Regenkunst
auf mich

Lass es

Regen

I will...cough cough not try to sing them:?

[barleygirl]

DARN this app! (driving us all nuts lately!)

[Neville]

Simply beautiful in all respects ..... I wanna copy .......................................................... Brother Nev :)

[Robert Trakofler]

it has a soothe to it... some people tell me it sounds sad but it really isn't supposed to be sad

[Neville]

.......................... it it truly splendiferous ......

[Stella Armour]

Let it rain... just let the damn burst and the heaviness flow free ... then the light can get in :)

[Robert Trakofler]

I know one person of whom the art rains upon all the time:) Those encaustic pieces are lovely that you did:)

[Stella Armour]

aww, thank you Bunny :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

I am so reminded of Eric Clapton's "Let it rain"
that way the tears mix with the rain and no one can see us crying. Art has to run free, it cannot be muzzled or muffled, it will scuffle...
if held down.
It has to run free...has to.

[Robert Trakofler]

after having finished this song I looked up my song on google to find it on spotify only to be shocked at how many songs have that title LOL but then again how else could i title this song
