Pitter-patter of the raindrops,
tap gently on my window pain,
echoing much happier times,
as my tears fall like rain.
I remember our rain soaked skin,
walking in a springtime shower,
rain beaded on the rose petals,
you handed me a crimson flower.
I recall a sudden summer storm,
raindrops tumbled from the sky,
turned into sheets of rain,
a cozy fire to help us dry.
As the rain rolls off the roof,
the sound makes me sad and blue,
as flowers need the falling rain,
so my broken heart needs you.
I shall walk among the raindrops,
masking the tears in my eyes,
the rain will hide my heartache,
walking beneath the stormy sky.

This was such a fantastic journey through the drops falling from the sky. The third entry and I am convinced that this will be a contest that will be super hard when it comes to rendering my final judgement. I want to thank you very much for taking the time and entering my rain contest. Good luck and may it also be with you in the New Year ahead.

Breathtaking!
Oh Sandy, I am literally holding my heart! This is outstanding in everyway, my old Sandy with rhyme is back, this is filled with such heartache of a great love, the last stanza takes my breath away...I shall walk among the raindrops,
masking the tears in my eyes,
the rain will hide my heartache,
walking beneath the stormy sky.
What a beauty this is! All the best in the contest, how can this not win! Ann
