Beautiful and no, certainly not about rain!
As pane (personified) sees hushed droplets fall, you see too, but are actually in your 'inner world', reflecting, as super picture shows, about whatever....
I have spent many a moment in front of a pane with raindrops slowly sliding down,
reflecting, sort of meditating and inspired to write a poem or two, but they are in Dutch.
Congratulations on 'Recognized', well deserved and this could be a winner in the contest, good luck!

Susan, that you so much for popping in to read my reflective poem. I appreciate your review and encouraging comments. Alas, I did not win but I enjoyed the thoughts that went into composing it : -) ~DD
Comment from Chrissy710
No it is not, a double meaning in a well written 5-7-5 I like this and immediately saw the two meanings A clever post and compliments the image nicely. Good luck in the contest Cheers Christine

Comment from June Sargent
Although we're drawn in first by the rain falling onto the window pane, the image of the woman makes you wonder what thoughts or feelings are precipitating in her mind as she reflects in hushed tones. Well done.

Comment from rspoet
Hello DD,
This is an interesting 5-7-5 poem, very well written
like a haiku with excellent imagery and connection
plus a fine reflection satori line
Excellent title and picture, too
I like that it doesn't use the word 'rain'
Best wishes in the contest, hope this does well
Robert

Comment from Dawn Munro
As always, your poem is so evocative,and sure to resonate with anyone who reads it, as we have all experienced these moments. It certainly seems that such weather draws us in to reflect. I love your use of both 'reflective' and 'hushed' -- those words establish mood perfectly. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hello Poemsofdd, a well written 5/7/5 poem for the contest. You could say it is a weather forecast on the window pane. LOL! A well worded piece of work and I wish you well in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

Comment from JennaG
Excellent 5-7-5 poem for the contest! Perfect syllable count. I enjoyed your play on words, especially the double meaning that "pane" could hold and "weathered" as the title. A very clever piece! Best of luck to you in the contest! :)
