I long to watch the rain fall in torrents
To gaze at dark clouds shedding copious tears
Maybe my dry eyes will learn a few tricks
How like them they can arrears release…

Rains from dark clouds we welcome, but tears from your dark eyes we don’t. Cheers.
Wow PRG, look who sounds poetic now!! Thanks.
Tears too are fine, Cleanses the soul. Beautiful
Yes, tears do that too. Thanks Chirag.
🙂 lovely 🙂
Thanks Vishesh>!
It’s the tears that console the soul and make us march forward without a least bit of fear! For me, tears are the best company when there is non to hear!!!
When there is no one near
The hearts outpourings to hear
To march forward without fear
I have to silently shed a tear
Not good enough, but your comment brought it on Bubbly!
No harm in some welling up of eyes with joyful tears 🙂
But do we keep joyful tears in arrears IHM?? 😀
Loved this…succinct n heartfelt 🙂
Thanks so much Sashu.
you have said so much and so deep in so few words. Marvelous !!!
Balvinder, welcome to my page and thank you or the appreciation.
crying in the rain…a joy as good as singing in the rain..:)
I agree, totally! Thanks Praveen.
Tears always heal, I have felt. Loved the emotion that surges in this!
Thanks Usha. I eagerly await your comment on my verse (or prose for that matter!!) 😀
That’s beautiful, Shail!
The line that came to the mind reading this is ‘I love walking in the rain because nobody can see me crying’.
BTW you are tagged.
Solilo, ahh yes, something apt to go with these lines.
I am swamped under tags!! 😦 Don’t know when I will get around to it!!
