The clouds began to turn a steely gray
It looks like rain as they begun to say
As the winds tossed them around and about
A downpour soon without a shadow of a doubt
Pitters and patters heard on top of the roof
Saturating the dry soil is its only proof
A life giving nutrient to all living things
Miraculous wonders that only nature brings
Innumerable droplets to quench the arid earth
Refreshing the air with unexpected rebirth
Raindrops dancing as they fell to the ground
Sweet music to the ears like a soothing sound
Overflowing the oceans, streaming down the mountains
Replenishing the springs, filling up dry fountains
Rain dance, rain dance making melodies from above
A gift to all showing God's abundant mercy and love

Rain is a vital gift of nature. So beautifully you expressed as how we see it, feel it and enjoy it.... I was delighted and went back to my childhood, you touched my heart. I still remember humming... O' my loving rain - you pour and pour on heavily - I'll float my paper boats in you And follow you with your stream ! !

Rain is welcomed with great joy especially after a dry spell! It rejuvenates the Earth and all the living things! Its sweet music is so refreshing! Indeed this shower of droplets from the sky is a boon sent down to man by God the Almighty! A beautiful poem Pat!
