Rain’s Sparkling Jewels

rain's sparkling jewels 
gently illuminated
under the streetlights

Snowy day

autumnal snowfall 
graceful motion in silence 
stopping soon enough

snow flurries
through the streetlight's gaze
silence

grey clouds
vessel of 
autumnal rain

sunlight through the firs 
koi moving in the pond 
tapping of raindrops

underneath the rain
leaves glistening like jewels 
as the sunlight fades

within my office
sunlight warming the cactus 
it embraces joy

these late autumn leaves 
remain affixed to the trees
another window storm

tickle in my throat 
as coughing then commences 
autumnal viri

as the rain's falling
branches sway in the breeze
after the sunset
