Running its race

 

I watch the rain

 

Trickling down

 

My windowpane.

 

Joining its friends

 

They form a line

 

Increasing the chances

 

Of bettering its time. 

Pitter and patter

 

The hypnotic sound

 

As it travels the window

 

On its' way to the ground. 

Dripping and splashing

 

Collecting together

 

How interesting it can be

 

Watching the weather.

 

Rushing in streams

 

They group to a huddle

 

Wanting to be next

 

To land in the puddle. 

That is where

 

Their race it does end

 

Accomplishing dreams

 

And meeting a friend.
