You Saw the Rain


Walking through dirty streets he just witnessed the road lines being washed by falling rain drops. Couples under one umbrella embrace each other as close as they can to fit under the round roof which is supposed to save them from rain. This closeness surely invites a real French kiss but that’s not what he thinks of.
Pigeons rush to the nearest hole to rest or to wait for the rain to stop falling. They prefer not to fly and also not to find the food before others grasp it. They know one thing is common among them; no pigeon looks for food under rain. This rain surely invites a peaceful sleep but that’s not what he thinks of.
Even those who only came to have a look at the luxury shops now find their reason to go in. now many inside the shops have forgot the luxuries and watch the drops coming down the door glass which breaks the light and gives an altered view of dirty streets; maybe to help them to be more beautiful. But this is not what he thinks of.

He opens his hands just before his face, gives them a fine slope, pushes them against each other to close the holes and this is what he thinks of:
"When the rain falls, as many as drops you catch, you will love me and as many drops you miss, I will love you." Laura said.

I saw your blog from daddy's_girl's, and followed to visit. I very much like what you have so far, and I plan to be back; you're an excellent writer, especially for what you describe your background as being!
