The Rain

The rain falls

                            Down

Slowly at first

Pitter patter…

Patter pitter…

It strikes the window
Gently at first

Tappity tap…

Tap Tappity…

Singing me to sleep

Softly for now

Silently quiet…

Quietly silent…

I close my eyes

Peaceful for now

Sleeping soundly…

Soundly sleeping…
