Night Rain

by Skyfire   Mar 23, 2007


I look into the sky
and watch the night-rain fall
the soft call of dusk
entices me.
Water streams across my skin
Cool and clean
Erasing where i've been
And who i was.
The soft glow of a street-lamp
Rubs across the shadows-
a smeared chalk drawing
of trees and stars.
It seems far away
like a dream
Perhaps I walk the line
between waking and wafting away
I look into the sky
and watch the night-rain fall....

    I should let you know, i absolutely love rain. everything about it is soothing and exciting and amusing all at the same time. much like the feeling of reading your poem. great imagery. it felt like i was there. but then i finished reading it, and BAM! back to reality.

    I love rain and storms, and this is written so beautifully, it really captures perfectly that feeling of being in the rain, wonderful images and very well written.

    Peace, Poetry & Power,
