Too heavy, rainwater falls
Dripping roughly
Sounds complicated
Unnatural rhythms
As I step outside
The falls hurting me
Hard to open my eyes
For some, you’re a song of love
For some, you’re a song of agony

You evoked my imagination.
I can imagine the heavy rain, noise, wetness and the ‘confusion’. 😇

I like how you set up how people can react differently to rain. And the lines make us readers wonder why the rain hurts the poem’s narrator… perhaps memories?

I just felt to contrast the situations..
Sometimes the hectic rain gives miseries to people..
For some, its to cherish the memories..

Love that you show there’s always two sides to every story. Love/hate relationship with rain is real and you expressed it well💕

When I am inside I enjoy it. The smell of recently wash earth, the aroma is relaxing but when have to go outside work…I hate it…the traffic, the water pools, the holes.
How about you?

Bravo! Love poems about rain!! Thought you might enjoy the quote about rain that I love
“Some People Feel The Rain, While Others Just Get Wet!” – Roger Williams Maybe “How do you feel about the rain?” Should be a question on relationship check lists?? I choose to be with those who love to dance in the rain like we did in childhood!!
