Tap-tap-tapping


Inspiration sometimes comes from really obvious places, I had intended to be out somewhere but the weather changed my mind for me - cameras and rain do not really mix.





Tap-tap-tapping - 25 Jan 11

I looked out
Watched the rain
Listened to it
Tap-tap-tapping
On my window

I had been called
Out
To walk
To play
Even though the sky
Was grey
But then I felt it
Tap-tap-tapping
On my head

All the things
I had intended
For the day
But
A tiny sadness
Now holds me
And little tears are
Tap-tap-tapping
On my heart

And now the sun
Has set
Behind the veil of cloud
From which the rain
Still falls
I only hear...not see
The drops
Tap-tap-tapping
On the glass

Waiting to see
What the morrow
Will bring...





Weather has an, often profound, impact on our lives - or sometimes it just raises a little smile.
