Rain pounding down on the road
Windshield wipers thumping
back and forth
back and forth
Headlights blurring together in the distance,
cutting through the dark
Raindrops sliding down windows
Rain pounding down on the driveway
Puddles forming,
their surfaces covered in ripples
Water pattering on the metal roofs of the parked cars
Bushes shivering in the wind
Falling droplets illuminated in the path lights
Rain pounding down on the roof
Curling up in blankets,
cradling mugs of hot tea
Falling asleep to the soothing sound
of nature’s flowing tears
