Unrythmically in rhythms
My mind it flows symmetrically
To the tune of the rain
My life an adventure
Like each drop
From whence does it come?
To where will it drop?
Does each drop even care, or do I?
Yes, I don’t choose to rain at random
Like the rain does, falling heedless
But like me, falling none the less
Oohhh that it could be so simple
Just a drop upon a crest
I wish my drop to have a purpose
Isn’t that the soul of me?
Or just a passing storm of my own ego
Just a squall most would let go
And watch the sunset aglow
In the aftermath of the storm

RAIN

I loved this poem. The imagery and word choice is outstanding. You give this beautiful aspect of nature justice with words. Well done!
