Listening to the Rain

Lying on my bed,
Listening to the rain,
I think of past memories,
Of both joy and pain.

My head pressed gently
Against pillows soft
Relives moments
I remember not of’t.

Water pounds on the door,
Supported by roaring gales,
I lie listening to their screams,
Till their music grows stale.

Raindrops dance on winds
Whose melodies I admire;
Singing sweet metaphors,
I write verses,inspired.

Lightning illuminates
My brother’s cheerful face,
Whose smile, from memory
Can ne’er be effaced.

There’s not one part
Of the storm that remains,
That isn’t a song I listen to*
Amidst the pouring rain.
