Rain/Shine

Which is more important,

The sunshine or the rain?

How can you have both

Happiness and pain?

 

When the skies are blue with puffy clouds

And sunshine all around,

I can feel the warmth upon my skin

As the rays are shining down.

 

But when the gray clouds roll on in,

Things get so exciting.

I can feel the thunder in my soul.

I can’t wait for the lightning.

 

In the sun I feel the gentle breeze.

I can go outside to play.

A storm holds so much passion.

It’s winds blow me away.

 

Sometimes the sun is way too hot,

So I’m begging for the rain.

When a storm rages out of control

It can bring destruction and pain.

 

Why can’t it just be

A rainbow all the time?

Rain and sun at once.,

Both of them all mine.

Hahahh clever. Interesting to think of a sunny rain. Or a bright stormy day. I like the thought of this paradox. I could actually see this as possible. Good thought.

They "are" yours for as long as your relativity and passion receives the messages...the pleasures are yours to enjoy and interpret as they are appreciated. Great poem!

an excellent poem very metaphoric, yes our moods do get affected by the weather. you've asked so many questions and left them to the reader, thought provoking. a 10 from me.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
