Listening to the Rain
Hey all! I'm back with my next poem, titled "Listening to the Rain". Enjoy!Lying on my bed,Listening to the rain,I think of past memories,Of both joy and pain.My head pressed gently Against pillows softRelives momentsI remember not of't.Water pounds on the window,Supported by roaring gales,I lie listening to their screams,Till they grows stale.Rain dances on …

Christmas
Hey all! I'm back with my next quadrille, in the form of rhyming three line stanzas.

The Thankmaker
Hey all! I'm back with my next poem, titled "The Thankmaker". Enjoy!In streets of despair,The thankmaker roams,A man without family,A man without home.Knows not any desire,Knows not any greed;One terribly content With the life he leads.In valleys of gloom,The Thankmaker roams,A selfless spiritThat stands aloneIn a world of sorrow,Committing selfless deeds;Showering like rainThe happiness all …
