Rainfall at Night

rainfall in the night 
singing across my rooftop 
the song of winter

This night of wind and rain, gently announcing winter’s approach. Laying in bed listening, remembering, so many omemories of rain in the darkness.

cold autumnal rain
moments of tranquility
as I sip my tea

a cup of tea
a quiet afternoon
autumnal darkness

after the rainfall
sun remains above the clouds 
autumn's progression

visions of autumn
daylight moves through clouds and rain
soon, soon winter comes

fallen leaves cleared
trees becoming more barren
autumn's progress

through the autumn storms
the rose's tenacity
shines through today's sun

these tenacious leaves
their grip strong through wind and rain
while the air grows cold

through the Autumn rain
jewels beading upon these leaves
I'm exhaling fog

within falling rain
I stop my walk to gaze at
this resilient rose
