December Rain
Dec. 21st, 2007 02:41 pm the rain
it comes down
in so many ways
straight, slanted,
hurried
piercing noon
that delights
eyes and heart
or so slowly, lazily
it drizzles
ever so slowly
- an old man trudging
through the lane -
throughout morn
until the pool is full
full with my impatience
to visit next door friend
for a round of football
rain April rain
it jumps in the garden
crystal upon crystal
to and fro
to and fro
down the big yam leaves the rain
it comes down
in so many ways
straight, slanted,
hurried
piercing noon
that delights
eyes and heart
or so slowly, lazily
it drizzles
ever so slowly
- an old man trudging
through the lane -
throughout morn
until the pool is full
full with my impatience
to visit next door friend
for a round of football
rain April rain
it jumps in the garden
crystal upon crystal
to and fro
to and fro
down the big yam leaves
