Rain - April Post

I read Edward Hirsch reading "Cotton Candy". I loved the description, a lot. He really painted a picture of his cotton candy and the Chicago bridge and his grandfather. It was almost like experiencing it firsthand. It was really somber but beautiful. I really liked it.


Rain

Rain

Trickling, dripping

Streaming down

Grey skies

Memories reborn

Echoes on the roof

Fog on the window

Pure and clean

Sad but sweet

"The angels are crying"

"No, sweetie, it's just the rain"

But today

I am not crying alone

    I love the description!! This poem really just pulled me in although it was sad. You did a very good job explaining everything that was going on. I wouldn't change anything about it.
