rain – Page 5 – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

A morning haiku

raindrops on rooftops
a song across my morning
for morning tea

under the spring sun 
with the rain stopping briefly 
my sweater warms me

bee within petals 
amidst the fresh rains droplets 
as the sunlight fades

relentless clouds
rains continues through daylight
and into the night

early morning 
between the raindrops 
I hear God's voice

morning rain 
delighting flowers
rich memories

Seattle, famous for its rain. For some, the accompanying gloom saddens. For me, though, I feel tranquility. These rain soaked firs are home.

the grace of sunlight
with the clouds moving southwards
this pause in the rain

mix of snow and rain
briefly coating the earth
blossoms unperturbed

my gutters sing 
within the tranquil rain 
lulling me to sleep

through rain, snow and hail
when the sky erupts in blue 
tranquility's joy
