Rain at Last

Rain at Last

A Poem by Raja
"

'Am watching the power of rain

"

 

Rain at Last!
 
The rain has been silent
For some time,
Maybe for me to add
The words of rain…
 
“It’s raining though again
For nothing so sure
For the deepest intuition to have
Rain once more…”
 
The rain starts falling
Dissatisfied with the words
I produced, unmatched the rainy power
Morning, day, noon, afternoon, and
Night alone
 
No matter what, it is the rain
At last!
 
Stopping wordy pit-a-pat
‘Am only watching
Rain and rain…

The last stanza is remarkable. When I began reading I couldn't help but feel as if I was reading something mediocre, unable to truly penetrate my stubborn and thick ego.

I perked up when you gave a voice to rain but then I thought, 'oh Cliché, my dear,' but then, right at the end, you used a syntax that had me feeling like I'd just met a truly innovative thinker, expectation defying, as if, like the paradox of rain - so foreign though totally familiar - it is unique, the pit-a-pat is unique, like no other rain, or moment of rain! Just like the stanza! It is no other stanza, no other moment of poetry.

"Stopping wordy pit-a-pat
‘Am only watching
Rain and rain…"

Truly original stanza, made my visit very worth while. Thank you for sharing.

This is such a beautiful piece of writing, so vivid and powerful...The entire element of imagery and visualization has been depicted here flawlessly.
As a reader I can really relate myself to this write, for me "Rain" here is an element of metaphor for a sense of satisfaction and happiness which comes in us after when our soul cry for the ending of all sorrow and suffering...so it is not just "nature at is best" but also the sense of symbolism at its best :)

Thanks a lot for sharing it here, it was a great write :)

i love the rain, the tranquility that it brings... the feel of it pelting my skin when getting stuck outside in it... this is a great piece -

Nature is a very powerful thing
Rain makes the flowers grow, that's a good thing
Nice nature write Ray { not a Poet }
