Just listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,

coming down like confetti from the sky,

 singing us a soothing song of nature.

When it rains, I love to

watch the trees dance,

hear the children’s laughter as

they play in the rain and

jump in the puddles.

When I was young

I was so taken with those 

lovey-dovey scenes in movies.

And I thought it was so romantic

to kiss your lover in the rain,

But in reality, we most likely

cuddle and watch TV,

play scrabble,

read a book,

or have a cup of coffee.

I love it when it rains.

Maybe it’s because

rain is not afraid of falling,

when it could no longer

hold it’s heaviness.

Our tears are just like rain.

And we have to let them flow freely

on days when our troubles

seemed too much to bear.

Just like the plants,

we’ll never grow if there’s no rain.

So let the rhythm of the falling rain

soothe and heal your soul!
