Why are we so afraid of darkness?
Why do we hate the rain?
Is darkness really evil?
Is rain really gloomy?
Or do we choose to see them as such?
Could the dark be beautiful?
Could the rain bring joy?
Without the dark
We could not see the stars
Without the rain
There would be no rainbows
Without evil
We would not know what good is
Without sorrow
We could not appreciate joy
Without the pain and trials
We would never value happiness
What is relaxing in the sun
Compared to dancing in the rain?
And what is the natural shine of the sun
To the magical glow of the moon and stars?
The stories we love the most
Are fables of facing the darkness
Are tales of journeying through the rain
Our favorite moments are
The stargazing:
Making wishes and sharing dreams
The thunder storms:
Romantic rescues and dramatic battles
The dark caves:
Hiding dangers and concealing treasures
The rain showers:
Grieving deaths and cleansing hearts
Darkness can be beautiful
Rain can bring delight
Moonlit nights are magical
Rainy days bring adventure
Stars inspire dreams
Rain promises romance
So embrace the darkness
Welcome the rain
They add depth to character
They add romance and spice to life
And they teach us true love
Because only Love
Finds beauty in the dark
And joy in the rain
As usual, I would love to hear your thoughts. Thoughts on the poem itself or on your own musings on rain and darkness. Thank you so much!! <3
