Poem for a rainy Day



Raindrops
Gentle cooling drops
Rolling from benevolent clouds.
The sky a cosy blanket under which to cuddle.
Blooms exhausted from heat open their hearts
Their thirst quenched with soft moisture.
Leaves sending small brooklets down to their brothers and sisters.
Hot pavings extinguish their furnacesses.
Small wavelets on the lake reach up to welcome family.
A sparrow revels in the cooling shower.
The woman on the bench mingles her tears with the soft raindrops.
They dilute the salt, the sorrow.
They have a healing touch.
