Night Rain

Rain is falling out there –


You are sleeping
While the trees
Slowly turn to glass.

Sometimes I feel
There is no difference
Awake or asleep –

The seasons turn
And the human passions
Are but a slight disturbance.

There is rain falling out there;

There will always be rain…
On the trees, on the houses,
Even on this window,

After we are gone.

Hay días en los que la tormenta termina, pero no llega la calma, @johnjgeddes. A veces la lluvia deja esos pocitos al final y tú, cual malabarista, brincas entre uno y otro para no caer en ellos. Pero hay otros días, en los que miras por la ventana y miras afuera y quieres ser Gene Kelly en Cantando bajo la lluvia: empaparte, cantar, ser feliz sin pensar mucho en el que dirán. Hay días también en los que el día está claro y brillante, pero es adentro de ti donde ha comenzado a llover, Y es entonces que escribes y el poema gota a gota, verso a verso, empieza a hacer pocitos en tu alma o se empieza a derramar. Que bonito fue leerte a esta hora. Te abrazo

Tú entiendes, Nancy, cómo estos elementales son estados de ánimo y la interacción entre el clima y nuestras emociones es lo que hace que cada día sea hermoso y único.

I don't know if I feel comforted by the continual rain, or saddened by it. I guess it should be neither. It's just a fact.

it's an elemental and we tend to see it through the lens of our moods - Rain is a beautiful sadness :)

Beautiful poem as beautiful as rain is, poet! There are days when it not only rains outside, it rains inside of us. Thank you for sharing.

thanks - you're right - sometimes it does rain within us

Very nice ...! it's beautiful painting and poem ...!

Rain {source of water} is one of the key element for our life, we cannot live without water so welcome it and enjoy!

Yes, rain will be here even when we will die.

It's a great fact.. if u think somewhere the rain hv totally attached with a man life .. it's a part of nature like a man. Rain explains feelings sadness, etc etc...@johngeddes

Nice painting. Leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

Is it a rich environment or rather poor.
Where is it?
What about the people on the left side?
and so on... :-)

Keep it up!

Rain is my friend. I welcome it.
