HOPE

Hi 
drop of rain 
on my window pane 
did you stop by here to meet me? 

As you slide down 
leisurely 
meandringly 
from one cool pool 
to the next 
Are you looking for a place 
to rest 
after your long journey? 

Pause here for awhile 
right on the moisture pile 
that my breath left sitting 
on the glass 
Sing me a few songs 
of hopeful morns 
Stay 
at least till the clouds last!
