RAINFALL
By Leah C. Dancel
I sing a song
of midnight blue.
It's melody
and tempo slow.
Bewildering,
beguiling,
and sadness
has brought me low.
The night is starless;
the moon without a glow.
And tears from heaven
are silent burdens
that flood my heart;
chilling and
grieving with
melancholic flow.
But the garden did not perceive
what the heart has conceived.
It did not matter
for the rain has brought life
to the plants a hungered
for love and tender care,
where pain has no place
in its beauteous blooming space.
