Symphony of Silver Rain

A villanelle poem.

A symphony of silver rain,

Serenades the sorrowful night,

Pitter pattering on my pain.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Though the seasons change I drag these chains,

Walking with my woe in spite,

Of a symphony of silver rain.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Memories overflow like wanton wine and stain,

Sensually soaking the silken cloth of pure white,

Drip, drip, dripping on my pain.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Peering out the weeping window pane,

The mystical moon no longer beaming bright,

Lost in a symphony of silver rain.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Supressing the soft sob of the soul in vain,

Torrential tears purge my plight,

Pitter pattering on my pain.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Zephyrus snuffs out the flickering candle flame,

Surrendering to the somber sounds of stormy night,

A symphony of silver rain,

Pitter pattering on my pain.

About the Creator

Daniela Alejandra

Life's a journey and I don't have map.

I long to create worlds like the ones I would read about under the blankets late at night.

Magical realism.
