Write As Rain

When cloud cover reflects

From my eyes

Serenity fills my mind,

Droplets massage my soul

And bad thoughts wash away

Like toxins from the sky.

So let it pour down

Because my spirit

Is being cleansed

As I watch the waterfall

Through the pain.

those last two lines, wow!
this is how it is too, a cleansing of sorts
a good cry can help to heal

Love, love, love the rain! I think we all have a secret tendency to thing the rain is washing things away. It's a great thought be it true or not, it can make you feel so fresh and new.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

I agree with you 100 percent.

When I watch these regular storms that streak across the wilderness, it's like a religious experience to me. You've captured this sensation of marveling in your poem. I hadn't been thinking of rain as cleansing (a comparison I love) & now I will be doing that, since we have more storms on tap! (gotta love it!) Fondly, Margie

Droplets massage my soul and bad thoughts wash away... It seems the sky knows a healing that is a blessing when our Spirit is suffering dispair from calamities of the world. Your poetry, Dale, is a balm for our times. truly, Pat

It is good if we can clean our spirit. Ain't so easy to do. Took me learning to meditate to release the weight of mistakes. I enjoyed the words and thoughts my friend.

It is not easy for sure, especially in this fast moving world.

watching through the tears...they can be cleansing...i am often guilty of not being able to cry...and later the hurt often gets worse.

Pent up pain can be like a bomb being activated.
