Rain showers

I want to see either stories or poetry (any kind is great) that deals with rain showers. I want to read about people dancing in the rain, meeting a lover, watching a lover leave them, etc.

What I want is emotion, imagery, be creative, use the rain however you want to but make sure that rain is included in what ever it is you write.

    To everyone who joined my Rain contest I really wanted to say thank you. Everyone wrote wonderfully and it was so very difficult to choose the winners. But someone had to be first.

  • It’s early morning but already light outside. On the other side of the blinds. It’s summer and it’s hot. Too hot. Even at this early hour.

  • Death doesn’t discriminate. Like the rain, its power can fall onto almost anyone. Anyone can give it and anyone can be a victim.

    that's funny because I have a story called Rain.
    I've entered it a few contests, another one won't hurt!
