Thursday, October 16th- RAIN


The peaceful cleanse of rain is like a baptism for the entire Earth.
It washes away the dust and grim replacing it with a soaked surface that will later dry to be cleansed.
The light pitter patter of a brewing storm begins while you sit with your family at the dinner table.
The heavier droning of the now steady rain brings thunder in all it's might.
The parturient masses of water downfall as you lay in your bed beginning to sleep.
Your windows light up with the blaze of lighting bolts striking the sky.
Many thoughts pass through your head, but none of worry.
You think about the renewal this hurricane-like weather will bring to the Earth.
You think about the rainbow's vivid colors that will be brought.
As you become drowsy from the lull of this cloudburst,
your final thought before you sleep is "Thank you God for this majestic being."


Using complex words that don't repeat often is my goal when I write, especially poetry. Here is a link to the thesaurus I used to make sure the work "rain" didn't repeat: Rain!

  1. I like how you did not repeat the word rain, and use other words instead of repeating it. I also like how you added pictures and the link for the thesaurus you used. I don't think you could of made it better, it is really good!
