ForAnother Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Its been raining here!!! haven't seen rain in 2 months since home. Thought I'd write some remembrance. Hope you like it. Smile With the Rain Its been a while It hasn't rained in my presense In some time. Drop Drop Exploding with splashes, Splash! They step And say "crap!" But when I step, I look down at my wet foot My soaked pant leg And smile. It feels like home. It feels like the days that were my worst, And for some reason I can smile now. I've been at the bottom of this puddle And it has yet to see the bottom of me. It rains a little harder. I take off my hood To let my hair understand what the rest of me feels. Look up Eyes closed Tongue out And my thirst is quenched. My burning tired eyes Heal from the chill of the water. As I walk inside, Wet And tired, I tell myself That today, Is a great day.

kungfumaster Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 That poem kicks you know what Foranother - I've never heard anyone express the happy feeling I get when it rains as you did. Wow. Vivid imagery, subtle emotions, and great feelings. *Applause goes here* Link to comment
under_the_pressure Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 I don't know what to say... ...I don't want to just put 'great poem' because it was so much more than that. I really liked it. Hmm...I love your writings and this one is..miraculous. I guess it's because most people really just don't like rain and I love it and can't ever describe it and you hit it. Great job. under* Link to comment
ForAnother Posted October 25, 2004 Author Share Posted October 25, 2004 Thank you both. I appreciate it very much. I just looked at it and the beginning is a bit choppy. If you guys find any choppiness or anything, just lemme know, I would like to improve like everyone else out there. ForAnother Link to comment
