Listen to each rain drop hit the ground
Listen to the way it falls
it shapes to it's surroundings
it falls silently
the rain drop is unnoticed in a croud of millions
millions of raindrops
the raindrop dies in all it's glory as it lives
almost silently
but as it dies it lets out one final incantion of joy
and when more that one sing that song
we hear them
something so soft
we hear their joy for the life they lived
the sound of millions of raindrops hitting the ground
falling on to a tin roof
they fall so quickly
we fall quickly
and sometimes we fail to hear the small voices that try to summon us
sometimes your voice is lost in the silence
the silence of rain
is that why rain is depressing
because it reminds us of how insignificant we are
but it teaches us if we band together
we will be heard
and it also teaches us that the end of our exsistance is happy
we are passing on to something new
whatever that may be
rain drops fall to the ground outside my window
the rain is heavy today.
well then have a good day.
