Rain Reflection

Summer morning rain,
Breeze brings some on porch with tea,
-evergreens through mist.

Watching clouds and time go by

The Rain And The Blues

Kneeling at her grave,
I looked up at the clear sky
-then I cried blue rain.

She sat across from me,
Telling me story of their love
-now about to cry:
since break up, no place to go-
memories everywhere!

Neverending rain,
Tourists went elsewhere, cafes closed
-was called Monsoon June.

Rainy summer day,
No children playing in park
-toys sunk in puddles.

If Only To Be...

What’s It like?
By Edward S. Gault


What’s it like? I asked
To travel the world like breeze
-blowing through the leaves.

Being ocean tides,
Massaging sandy beaches
-reaching, then smoothing.

As a rain droplet,
Viewing the world as convex
-joining earth as many.

Raging as wildfire,
Consuming the lush landscape
-through ash, genesis.

Rising as flowers,
From soil’s darkness into light
-reaching for the sun.

Towering mountain,
Has seen one vista, but well!
-that is what it’s like.

Full Cycle

Children cheer snowfall,
Rain creates slush, then freezes
-adults curse slick ice.

Rain plasters them to sidewalk

My journey told in the sand

xx In the bleakest deep despair
xxx-then You were still there.

Time To Start Thinking About Snow.

Song Of Snow
by Edward S. Gault

It had rained for days
That May of '06
A blanket of fog
Descended down upon the city
So at times
You could not see the Customs Tower.
A bridge in one town collapsed.
Many businesses and residences were flooded.
People were evacuated.
A woman, her head covered by a hood,
- being carried out of a nursing home,
Was asked if she had any words-
So she sang
The song of snow
