Rain

Oh Rain Oh Rain, when will we meet again

As the drops of rain fall down on my window

As the little dots of cloudburst come trickling down on the glass

I can sleep peacefully. The drops of rain is a treaty to keeps bane from going insane

Oh my God, now I may never get a nap. Is raining cats and dogs , dogs and cats.

It's smooth drizzle is washing away my problems. The stronger the rain, the stronger the freedom.

Feels like a sprinkler of alcohol being poured on open cut. My heart is open cup flooded 

                                but

Rain represents two sides.

Rain represents two sides.

                                                                                  the bad, the ugly

                                                                                  the good, the beautiful

Clouds can represent

 a town or a town full of crowns 

   Drizzle can represent

    a simmer down situation or a stressful occupation

      Lighting can represent  

        a dark place that's near or a certain spark that's here

          Water can represent

            a taste of a purity win or a sense of a obscurity sin

 

Oh Rain Oh Rain , nice to meet you again

Very unique. The rhythm is very broken - but the rain doesn't have a steady rhythm and you talk about the rain changing pace so it works. I like how you talk about the rain having two sides and then from that point everything has two meanings. The display is cool, like a cup running over. Over all, very unique. Good job.

I really enjoyed the free-falling sensations I experienced while reading this free-style verse. The rain is seductive, alluring in it's serenity. Yet, it is used so frequently in dark and gloomy pieces of literature,

"One dark and stormy mid-nite dreary..."

Such are the complexities of the world in which we live...

It's raining as I read this, think this is funny haha.
This is a lovely poem, had to read it a second time after seeing your pronunciation note. I really loved it, especially the part where you start to talk about the rain and the different things that it can represent in life. You start out with a beautiful description of you sleeping having just finished some big problem. Gotten over some big obstickle with your heart ready to move on now. But as you lay there resting you ask yourself when will the next trial start? When will the next challenge present itself? You speak about how the rain can be ending one thing but starting another at the same time. You did a great job on this! Really enjoyed the art in here and the meaning behind your rain :)

Nice one, liked it.
Truly shown making rain as a symbol that everything has two sides to it, just like looking at cup half full or half empty. Loved the positive spirit shown inspite of hardships being suffered and yes
"Oh Rain Oh Rain, will be a-Gain"
best wishes

Cipher, encryption, imagery...being reminded at the end of what-could-if-it-might-were-possibly-may-be's ...k, I get that. Beware anyone ever saying a work is "clever" - it really isn't a compliment.

You've the energy and depth to want to work your work into multiple levels of thought and simultaneous meanings. It takes effort and you expended some here. Be careful that a month from now even you might have trouble remembering your various intents. The more cryptic - and people will usually pick up a meaning you hadn't even considered and strangely enough THAT can often be very distracting to what you were really expressing.

Very beautiful and visually stunning.

A Drizzle can represent
a simmer down situation or a stressful occupation
I am especially fond of those two lines. They just stick with me. This intermittent style is very much like a microburst - staccato thoughts - tumbling over each other....then the blue sky
A wonderful poem.

This poem is very unique, a nice balance between positive and negative. Well done!
