The Rains

by Vinnie R.

The pitter-patter of the raindrops

As it hits the rooftops

The swaying of the trees

In the heavy breeze

The flash of lightening

Illuminates the sky

The crack of the thunder

Makes the poor dogs cry!

It brings for some

A goodnights slumber

For others lucky enough

It ignites passions

In the arms of lovers

For some it might cause worry

Of damages brought by Mother Nature

Whatever it is loss or gain

We have no choice but to wait it out

For we cannot stop the rain!
