Rain

A curious thing I observed from my window pane

In the broad sunlight it started to rain

How curious to see light so bright

Illuminate raindrops to plain sight

The brilliance of the sun with life giving rain

Seemed to clear the clouds and wash away the pain

Only once have I seen such beauty before

In a way that is subject to myth and lore

For my heart now belongs to the beauty beheld

The look in her eyes causes my heart to melt

Her smile causes tears to form in my eyes

Tears of joy at the feeling of soaring up high

For just as the rain was not dark with dispair

So is this beauty full of gentle care

And I thought of her then as I watched the rain

And I dreamt of the time when I can hold her again
