[bodytext] => The rumbling thunder shakes my body While my soul remains still As the rain taps its rhythm at my feet The flash of light blinds me with the brilliance Of something that is greater than us all But simpler still than we can fathom I inhale the scents that overwhelm me It's almost more than I can stand But it's everything I need somehow Just to be here, right now feeling this way I feel as though I might burst Not from anguish broken down Though instead from catching just a glimpse Of something that is true: Too pure to be tainted Or stripped of its never abating Love I see myself In the reflection of the light Cast to illuminate the water Collected on the ground The rain mirrors my emotions As it pounds to the earth flooding the streets While feelings overflow from me And just as we accept that the rain Falls from the clouds to quench the thirsty world So too do these emotions, abundant as the rain Have their origins and purpose to me But it doesn't matter about the why or when For all we need to know is the how And never mind the rest We feel because we feel and that is all that counts So close your eyes And look inside As the rain drops softly outside It reminds us there's a reason for the day If we listen to our feelings Just as we hear the thunder clap After we see the lightning's spark So we know it was not merely A figment of our imagination And what we saw is how we feel Which is all that matters today For we will never be the same again Though maybe it's better that way And the rains will come and go But our emotions will always stay So just think of the rain And feel the emotions rise within you When you know to disregard The questions that have no answers Nor do they need any And it's then you've found yourself While standing in the rain Feeling Love pour down Soaking you, through and through [comments] => 1 [counter] => 273 [topic] => 21 [informant] => OhSaige [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
