A Symphony of Rain

The Symphony of Rain I gazed outside my patio the gray clouds formed a dire dun A clap of thunder sent its hint and lightening followed as a spark The season for the rain has come and rain descends and spreads a song A steady stream of decibels intensifies a melody The chorus joined by flowered plants birch and Palm trees dance and sway Repeating verses to a lull then soon there are the single drops dripping then there is no sound A rainbow arcs around the sky The birds return and greet the sun They languish in the water fount and sing an encore to the end Ralph Sergi September 3, 2018 *I wrote this poem while watching and listening to a tropical storm. It was very enlightening
