I hear the drizzle of the rain
Like a memory it falls
Soft and warm continuing
Tapping on my roof and walls
~
I'm fixing a hole
where the rain gets in
and stops my mind
from wandering
where it will go
~
The rain begins with a single drop.
—Manal al-Sharif
~
The rain to the wind said,
'You push and I'll pelt.'
They so smote the garden bed
That the flowers actually knelt,
And lay lodged—though not dead.
I know how the flowers felt.
—Robert Frost
~
The colder the raindrops
the harder they knock
on the door.
~
Do not be angry with the rain; it simply does not know how to fall upwards.
—Vladimir Nabokov
~
Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.
—Bob Marley
~
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning how to dance in the rain.
—Vivian Greene
~
The drops of rain make a hole in the stone, not by violence, but by oft falling.
—Lucretius
~
And nothing lasts forever,
even cold November rain
~
Here comes the rain again.
