Rain

Raindrops on the window,
A spiderweb of tears,
The patter on the rooftops,
Everybody hears.

Delicately falling down,
Rain for all to see,
Catching all the droplets,
On the branches of a tree.

Draped around like fairy lights,
Translucent, but they're there,
Arcing down like ballet dances,
The rain is everywhere.

Elegant in its falling,
Then thrashing, no regret,
Shining like the world's aglow,
Gleaming, softly, wet.

Raindrops falling speedily,
Standing in downpour,
Feeling rain upon my skin,
The weather's mighty roar.
