What beautiful poem. Simple but moving words that compel you to want more. Each line seems to have it's own meaning then blended together at the end. Just a great job. Congrats on the win. Have a great day and God bless.

This is a fine 5-7-5 poem. I feel the down mood as we have had rain storms roll in every day for the past 3 weeks. It brings my mood down. I especially enjoyed your last line. It summed your message perfectly. Congratulations on winning this contest.

What a great expression of one's mood being in tune with the weather. Sometimes when we feel alone or overlooked, there is a peaceful sensation of having a synchronization with nature. This poem expresses this appreciation.
Well done

Rain makes me happy to see the drops come down. Even if it someone
small crying, for I know they have a soul and their wants are the aggressive
tears where words cannot explain. Rain is the tears of that aggressiveness as
the world is trying to explain God's love for his people and His creative weather.
Your poem reminds me of all your words. God bless you.

Hugs, Mae 222

Mary, yes, I think the weather can certainly affect our mood. Rain
sure does tend to make us feel more depressed; at least if it lasts
very long. Good entry for the contest. Good luck

Although this is a sad moment, it is a beautiful piece. The pain that was felt, was felt by the individual and the weather. We came from the Earth and we will return to the Earth, so it only makes sense that we can feel each other's pain.

What is it when it rains and we look out that we begin
to tear up. This has happened to so many of us and I
appreciate your insight. Well done and you've got my
vote. Bill
