Two Poems of Rain

I follow her down

Within every rain drop
is a reflection of the Sea.
through mountain meadow
through rolling river
she finds her way to the Sea

and I wonder if
within the mountain meadows,
within the rolling rivers
If I may also see
the reflection of the sea

I follow her down_

Night Storm

Rain
smells sweet
taps tempestuously
follows the thunder
before the breeze
asks for nothing
goes about its business
into the night.

  2. Both of these are lovely… I am drawn to the first a bit more… might be the personification in it… making you want to follow “her”…

    • Thanks, Samanthamj, somewhere there is a zen proverb ” in every grain of sand is a reflection of the Universe”. and with some other thoughts… I like how the poem came out.
