Rain drops


 

 

 

 

All rain drops are,
Never the same
They differ
In meaning
And in names

Some are
Radiant
Sublime
Nice
And beautiful

Some are
Happy
Exciting
Twinkling
And blue

For many
Brood
Crib
Curse
And mull

While others bring
Hope
Joys
Smiles
And tears

To me, they
Tickle
Inspire
Ignite
And dare

I wonder
Why all do not mean the same?
As they do in form
And appearance seem
Wholesome
Pure
And clear

For then I found
It is our sight
Opaque
Vulgar
Dense
And vague

Which sees
Otherwise
While rains never differed
They were all the same
Innocent
Simple
And plain…

    I agree.. its our vision that differs, rain drops are petals for some and pebbles for others…nice poem:)
