When it rains <br /> <br />Roads, trees, houses, birds <br />Fences, lawns, porches, terraces <br />Flowerpots, climbers, flowers, windows <br />Words, books, poems, conversation <br />Dreams and faces <br />Sun and shades <br />All get wet <br />Memories are inundated <br />Life spans turn into ephemeral moments <br />Dry eyes are filled with water <br />(and are washed clean) <br /> <br />When it stops <br />Winds start blowing.<br /><br />Naseer Ahmed Nasir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rain-234/
