Rain.
Comforting.
Controlling
Calming.
Oversweeping emotions.
Uncovering lost dreams,
blinding all you’ve seen…
Friend of broken hearts.
Cousin of fallen tears.
Comfort of the unforgiven,
with their doubts,
and with their fears…
Calling of the lonesome,
lonely tears from starry-eyes.
Tracking down emotions,
that long ago had died.
Rain.
Unaffectionate.
Powerless.
Disturbing.
Rain.

Whoa, you REALLY did a marvelous job in capturing the moment
of when it rains, and it couldn't have been worded any better!

I like the parts where it explained how it is a friend/cousin/
and comforter of such and such, going into detail.

I found the ending ironically contradicting though;
you say it is calming in the beginning, however,
at the end it is disturbing, etc. on the opposite flipside
of everything you stated before that.

I do not know if that was intention to make the poem more interesting or, to confuse the reader . . . I do not know.
Nonetheless, it concluded itself quite well.

I applaud you for pin-point writing about this moment.
I have accepted this into the Group. I Faved this too!



Thank you so much for explaining this in words!
