Rain drops bead
Upon the lines


And small birds
Shelter under eaves;

I read you my verses
From far away,

Soft and warm
And moist with sleep.

A lovely verse, John. We finally got some rain on the west coast and it was welcomed. We needed it. Getting a taste of fall today:)

Thanks, Pryde - glad to hear it - Fall and rain - such a perfect combination :)

Qué belleza de poema, @johngeddes! Las nana siempre me han parecido una pieza extremadamente tierna y que solo busca un fin: dormir al niño, al bebé. Me imagino una melodía como las que posee una canción de cuna, la lluvia, los pájaros afuera y el cuadro cobra vida. El poema se convierte en ese canto corto, dulce, que busca arrullar y proteger. Seguro tu canto llega aunque sea en la distancia. Te abrazo fuerte.

Protección contra tormentas: esa es la provincia de Dios y un deber que a veces confiere a los hombres

Nothing better than the rain to create that nostalgic space that seeks communication. Greetings, poet.

I agree. Thanks, charjaim
