Another poem... again, not the best. Advice is appreciated.

Rain

I stare out the window
Bored with the sameness of life.
The lonely days drag on
Repeating again and again.

The sky is overcast and grey
And I wish that it would rain.
Although rain means sadness and gloom to many,
To me it is happiness and love.

Rain is a friend in the hard times
A companion in the dark.
When it rains my pain is washed away,
Like footprints in the sand.

Then suddenly it happens,
The clouds burst above.
I run outside and let rain pour down upon me
And it speaks works of comfort and love.

The rain runs down my skin
It seeps down into my soul.
I stretch out my arms and laugh
For the first time in so very long.

The rain pours its friendliness down upon me
It washes away the sorrow and grief
Laughing and rejoicing with this companion
Such a simle thing, yet so fulfilling.

Nice subject, but it doesn't flow very well. I guess that's not for me to judge, it just bugs me a bit. Good otherwise.

Thanks. Yeah, it is a bit choppy- I just kind of wrote it out in a hurry earlier. Thanks though.

I like it too! I love rain! I love dancing in the rain! Water is so my element! I've drempt that I was water once, and took tons of quizes online which result in saying my element is water... or air... those are so my two elements... but rain is my fav. of both elements and their many forms!(just as long as it's not hurricane rain, and just sprinkle raing...)

Thank you!! Yes, I agree- water is definately my element too. I just love it. Like I said- particularly rain and the ocean. But since I'm no where near the ocean, I always choose rain.

hm... not much of an ocean person... mostly because of the beach part! And the fact of my pale, easily burnt skin. I'm surrounded on three sides by water, cause I live on a little pennisula called Florida... anyway, it's easier to dance in the rain than to dance in the ocean, but I really would like to horse back ride on the beach! Born to Ride! But forced to go to school...

Yeah, me too! I have lessons, but haven't had any since Thanksgiving because of holidays, and won't have any till after New Years. I want to move to the Smokey mountains in TN! I'm tired of Florida... lived there most of my life!

Lol... I can't imagine being scared of horses, since I've been riding since I was little. I've never been to the Smokey Mts, but I've heard that they're beautiful.
