Brookelyn Maxwell: Poetry Collection




Flood


The cool rain was falling so close to grasp

Unpredictable, untold direction,

Even if you try to use the best map

It’s puzzling to get its clear affection


Trying to understand the thoughtful rain,

It’s a task some others have failed to do

Its soft anger has caused thunder and pain,

The rain unable to get its point through


The rain’s shy words only come out silent

Soon the weary rain starts to roar and pour

Flooding all lands, seeming violent

The sad rain leaves, afraid of ruining more


Hiding in the protective clouds, anxious

Isolating itself from everyone


Trying to avoid all chances of failure

It says next time it will be a savior
