The sky weeps with gentle grace so gray

Each drop a story in its own ballet

The world hums soft as creatures hide and stay

A cozy haven on a rainy day

Books unfold like portals casting spells

Candles flicker weaving tales they tell

The storm’s grand symphony begins to swell

Outside the heavens ring their distant bell

Oh rain oh rain your whispers soothe my soul

Fall down bring calm make broken spirits whole

Your rhythm taps the heart as thunder rolls

Oh rain you cure the cracks and mend the whole

Windows fog while tea cups hold the heat

Blankets wrap like clouds in this retreat

The world outside a tempest wild and fleet

Inside serenity I know no defeat

As puddles dance beneath a fickle breeze

Their ripples echo secrets of the seas

The stormy opera unfolds with ease

And finds its chorus in the shaking trees

Oh rain oh rain your whispers soothe my soul

Fall down bring calm make broken spirits whole

Your rhythm taps the heart as thunder rolls

Oh rain you cure the cracks and mend the whole
