rain thoughts

3/6/19

i look outside my bedroom window

hearing the pitter-patter of the rain

i think to myself, how'd i get here,

to this point in my life?

i'm unsure of how i feel today

well, that's most days i suppose 

as i'm staring out the window,

i identify one feeling above all else 

high above the disarray of my own thoughts 

and that is the urge to leave

to find some new place far away

rain gives that affect on people 

or perhaps it's just me

i love the sound of rain on the roof...
and it temporarily takes us places...and sometimes that same rain washes away bad memories.

I enjoyed this poem. My dear grandparent had a metal porch roof. The rain gentle knocks create a peace. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry. A rainy day, good day to gather thoughts.

No not just you - but remember rain symbolizes renewal - your poetic reflections and questioning promotes imagination and creativity - no need to leave - just write more... :-)
