Nachtmusik

Nachtmusik.
Distant rolling thunder lays the bass;
a prelude to the lightshow.
Overtones of pelting rain,
staccato on the window pane.
Symphony of nature
each stanza singing solace;
adagio
lulling me to slumber.

And so I go.

  1. I'm glad the rain makes you feel sleepy! It tends to make me feel anxious and nervous.. Lovely poem, though :)

  3. Karen - thanks. And yes, I find rain rhythmic and relaxing. Hope you are well.

    Lori - I think being in a flood zone would be stressful. Rain would definitely not be a welcomed friend, that's for sure!
