    The Rain

    Wet, cold, chilly
    somewhat refreshing
    and a bit scary

    Loaded raindrops cool my dry scalp
    while little puddles of drizzle
    soak my expensive shirt

    The sky turns a dark grey
    and the wind becomes thick
    the sound of falling water
    becomes the clatter of the moment

    Silence and sadness
    fills the atmosphere
    as the casket is set
    to rest

    Why does it always rain
    when someone close to you
    departs this life?

    very well put,, easily felt..

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
