Best Rainy Day Poems

i stood looking outside
listening to the rain 
with its long slender fingers
tap a tune against my window

squeegees in hand
i could see 
the troops of drops
clean the air
for a clearer view
while on their descent

people
some walking 
holding their umbrellas 

others running
attempting to escape
the cruel barrage of
knocks to their heads

there are a...

Rainy day
Green and grey leisure
You say
It is a pleasure

Green and grey leisure
Drifting poems in sky
It is a pleasure
Golden kites flying very high

Drifting poems in sky
You want them close
Golden kites fly very high
You are morose

You want them very close
So that you can smell
You are morose
Indweller clouds...

Rainy Day Dreams

How sweet’s the lovely scent and sound of rain
As I look out amidst the sultry storm
From bursting clouds upon the window pane, 
I feel the chills on my svelte body's form. 
The thrill of thunder claps and lightning too, 
When shivers crawl and...

Out on the porch for a little recess
From life's daily chores, listen to raindrops
Pitter-patter, musical sounds request
From gentle breeze, which stirs windchimes non-stop
Nature's orchestra plays as in hammock relaxed lay
A novel to read or just nap away
Afternoon quietly, what more pleasure
Maybe do something risque
Meet with...

Rainy Day Beauty  

Outside our bedroom window
the leaves dance in the rain
As if they’re waving to me,
my smile I can’t refrain

The day it may be gloomy,
but when I look I see
Such beauty here beside me,
now sleeping peacefully

And though the dawn is stormy
with clouded charcoal...

The oyster's shell of succulent dawn 
Burst open a suppressed exhalation yawn. 

They had waited on the beach 
To see the amber sunshine reach, 
Huddled beneath a blanket each.
In their nude feet they walked. 
They kept silent, with hands locked. 

Darken clouds nudge intruding 
leaving...

You're locked in your room and tied to your bed
There's blood on your pillow from the hole in your head
You lay and you wait, just welcoming death
No fight or struggle as you breathe your last breath
The rain is cold as it thunders and storms
But your...

To prepare for the rain
Is important to every man; 
Able to meet his needs, 
Doing everything he can.

Look at the ants, 
Storing up food in summer; 
Not to be caught off guard, 
Nor hungry during winter.

But more than ensuring
A life in contentment; 
One should prepare...

Take me away,
o rainy day
as your gentle waters
pass my way

Sweetly kissed
by foggy mist
my troubled thoughts
have fallen whist

What soothing sound
the droplets found
as on my roof
they dance around

The nearness of
the clouds above
has left the mountains
bathed in love

Purples, pinks
do cast their winks
and woodlands thrive
as Nature drinks

O rainy day

A rainy day spent with the grandkids
Beats the sunniest day on a cruise.
You can never explain
Just how much you can gain
Without seeming to over-enthuse.

It’s a joy I feel privileged to sample,
Knowing others don’t share in my luck
But if you can relate
You know there’s no debate
That...

A million memories
of a million kisses
my neck, my body...all over
kisses all the time

but, as the months
slowly turn into years
I have only a fading memories
... of a few

I wished
I saved some
for these
rainy days...

Rainy day people don't mind 
if a little rain comes
to reign on their parade
Its all about the cornucopia of colors 
in umbrellas and rain coats alike;
Coupled with a sweet imagination 
we can invite that petrichor scent 
to spread through our senses 
and deliver us from...
