Rain - A Poem - Mind You I Wrote This When I Was About 13!

October 14, 2009 03:56 PM EDT

The rain has arrived,

I tremble inside,

Its beauty has restored my pride.

I can now begin to dry my eyes.

I feel its warmth on my pallid face

filled with gentleness and grace.

Its mild hands caress me.

For what did I ever have to fear?

Excellent teen poem!
The fear would be that it turns into snow, which is what the weatherman is predicting here today, nasty thought!

Wow! Great work for a 13 yr old! I'm impressed!

amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 4:23pm EDT

Thanks, I was a weird child lol.

Janie E. Oct 14, 2009, 5:26pm EDT

Then I must have been a weird child, too, because I was into poetry when I was 13. LOL

amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 6:23pm EDT

I just really liked to read and write probably since like fifth grade. Nobody else liked it, just me lol, but I went to a bad school and stuff.

Janie E. Oct 14, 2009, 11:08pm EDT

So did I, which is why most of my friends probably thought I was a nerd, but I didn't care.

You were a lovely thirteen year old who grew into an equally lovely lady. (I have two poems I found that I wrote at fifteen and they were dark and depressing yours is light and lovely!)

amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:50pm EDT

Lol, thank you, its one of the few. I have mostly dark poems, but a few very light ones.

A great poem for a 13-year-old--or even for an adult. It flows nicely. Keep sharing! :)

amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:49pm EDT

Thanks, I like to share my work. I wrote it and its been sitting in a notebook for a million years.

13, I am glad that you shared and even happier that you saved it!

amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:49pm EDT

Well, thank you, me too!
