I like watching the rain drops
I like watching how they fall from nowhere in the sky and then on the rooftops
I like watching the drops gathering with their kind and then flow down onto the ground
I like watching how soil and grass look browner and greener after the rain falls on them

I like the sound of the rain drops
As they race to hit the rooftops
I like how the rain sounds approaching, distancing and returning
as the wind blows them everywhere it likes
I like the sound of the wind coming with the rain
And I like how it blows upon the trees, making them shake under the rain

I like how the wind feels on my skin
As they pass through the opened window behind which I stand watching

I like rains to shower longer
Because I like how the clouds cover the sun and make days look gloomier
I like listening to the rain drops longer
Because they resemble the rhythm of my heart

I like how people run under the rain
And then find shelters somewhere else
I like how they stand waiting for the rain to stop
As they stare emptily at the tumbling raindrops

But I like it only when I'm safe and warm at home
When I only look at rain wetting the earth but not me

I liked dancing in the rain
But that was when I was little
And now that I have felt enough
I like it better to remain dry
