1112 Rain - Again! A Pantoum Poem by John Knight

1112 Rain - Again! A Pantoum

Rating: 5.0


Horrible - It's raining once again today
Relentless and unstoppable the rain
Skies so heavy - leaden and so grey
Pouring down from roof and window pane.

Relentless and unstoppable the rain
Pouring roaring down as from a dam
Pouring down from roof and window pane
Force far greater than a battering ram!

Pouring roaring down as from a dam
Pouring down to rivers from the streams
Force far greater than a battering ram
Rain is never gentle as it seems.

Pouring down to rivers from the streams
Skies so heavy - leaden and so grey
Rain is never gentle as it seems
Horrible - It's raining once again today!

(John Knight - Colchester - November 2009)

Horrible-it's raining. Wow, a well written poem. You described about the horrible you found in rain, things you got from rain. Yeah, this is nice. Horrible-it's raining again.
