Sad Rain

Sad rain is poetically silent yet also loud
It whispers on the surface but inside it screams
Tip tap
Like a beating heart shedding violent tears
Tip tap
Coming closer now, attracted to your soul
Tip tap
Can you hear it?
Slowly rumbling towards you
Sensual almost, it knows you
Tip tap
The rain is here with you now
It is a trustworthy companion
Constant, continual
Tip tap
Sad rain is poetically familiar
Is it not?

    I can hear it!!!! Or maybe that's b/c it really is raining at my house...oh well.

    This is sweet - no, not in the romantic way - it's really good. I like the whole "tip, tap" thing. And how you bring your reader in, let them be a part of the poem itself.

    Great job!

    this poem was really good. i liked how you asked a question at the end, and my favorite part was where you said "like a beating heart shedding iolent tears." Great Job!

    i love rain.. its magical. rain has many aspects and you grabbed the inspirational one... which is good in my book.
    i like how you use onomatopoeia tip tap.. brings nice effect to the write.. you could have given more poetic imagery but this write does justice to the rain itself.

    Nice... i liked the way you've described the rain . Rain it's really magical isn't it ? The repeat of tip tap is also good.

    Hey Oxy...
    This is filled with nice imageries... good write. 'Tip tap' creates nice rain-rhythm in my mind... Your 'Sad Rain' makes me go drenched with sadness...

    thanks for sharing
    love
