IF RAIN COULD HEAR ME
"Whispers from a Soggy Soul: Reflections on a Rainy Day"

If rain could hear me, I would say,
I don't have an umbrella, come back another day!
I have plans that we can't delay
like new haircuts, blow-outs, or new shoes
not made for rain,
or long trips home that can't be sustained.
If rain could hear me, I would say,
"Please rain, don't come, and spoil my day!"
deep down. I know it's true that you have a job to do!
like bringing life and beauty anew.
If rain could hear me, I would say,
Today is my Exs boyfriends birthday I asked if you can ruin his day!
soak his cake box, so he can throw it away
If rain could hear me, I would say
please go away
I have so much to do today
I don't want to get all wet and cold
I'd rather stay inside all warm and bold
but I have to go out, so if you could hear me
oh rain, please, I would plead
To stay up in the clouds indeed
If rain could hear me, I would say,
I don't have on my rain gear today
I don't want to deal with wet socks
I don't want to hear the thunder's roar,
Or see the lightning strike once more.
I don't want to slip on the sidewalk,
or have the cars splash me while im walking by.
If rain could hear me, I would say
I know you're needed for the Earth,
To give it life and bring it mirth.
But can't you come at a better time,
Like when I'm not out and about to climb?
If rain could hear me, I would say
I'm happy today, my mood is fine
please don't make me go home
sad and drink some wine
I don't mean to be rude or bland
But I just don't want you today
so please or please just go away
If rain could hear me I would say
im so sorry for pushing you away
Forgetting how much we need you so,
To nourish the earth and help things grow.
If rain could hear me, I would say
you're such a pain
I wish you'd go and catch a train.
Or maybe go on vacation,
To someplace with more appreciation.
If rain could hear me, I would say,
I don't want to go to school
can you rain down and create a mess
and brake all the rules
I promise I'll do my best and handle all the rest
If rain could hear me I would say
where were you when I needed you
when my job called me in
on my day off man, I just can't win
If rain could hear me I would say
You cleanse the air of dust and grime,
And make it fresher, cleaner, and divine,
Your melody is music to my ears,
A symphony of drops that soothes my fears.
You're a blessing in disguise for all,
With every droplet, you answer the call.
If rain could hear me, I would say,
I know sometimes I can be selfish
by pushing away
Please stay awhile, don't go away.
Your gentle drops upon my face,
Bring peace and calm,
a sweet embrace.
Your pitter-patter lulls me to sleep,
In dreams so deep, hearing the beat of each raindrop hitting my window as I sleep all snuggled in my pillow
If rain could hear me, I would say
you're a wondrous sight,
A blessing in disguise each night,
Your gentle touch is such a treat,
I can't wait until our next meeting.
So, if rain could hear me, I'd say,
Stay a while, and bless us today,
Bring us your love and grace, And let us enjoy your sweet embrace."
But only when im prepared and you're needed.
