Let It Rain

 Poetic Bloomings Prompt: day 7. Summer Rain

Let it rain while we abstain

From duty’s tireless ‘please’

The air is like a soft, silk train

Splish-splashing through the trees

Let it rain while we employ

The hour with oohs and ahs

There is such a simple joy

In nature’s applause

Let it rain. Let the breeze tease

The day with melodies

That pleases audiences. Yes.

 With dimple-dappled seas

Let it rain. Like fields of silver grain

Let heaven fall

As Earth lifts up Her leaf-sheaf mane

To catch it with Her shawl
