THE RAIN BEAT

 The Rain Beat

I heard a gentle thud repeat,

Twas’ rain a falling with a rhythmic beat.

Pitta, patta, bop, bop, bop,

The sound on the skylight would not stop.

I ventured out into the night,

Tilted my head soaked up the rain at it’s height,

Oh such happiness from within did I hide.

Until this night of storm and hail.

My clothes absorbed the cool wet night.

As rain lashed and splashed, obscuring sight.

The earth with its blessing continued to pour.

As I retreated indoors, the rain sprayed down more!
