Raining Cats and Dogs

Raining Cats And Dogs 

The limitless, rhythmic, rain 

Constant,

Upon the window 

Splish, splashing, mesmerizing 

Me into daydreams

In it's hypnotic incessant, 

 Obese clouds idly wandering around 

Holding July hostage, 

Calling a halt to the glitter of sun 

Upon my dreams.

My Mountain

My Mountain 

He's always been like a mountain to me, 

Always there tall and strong, 

Forgiving me no matter what went wrong 

In his shadow was my haven, 

Even when naughty and misbehavin, 

In his arms he kept me 

Safe and sheltered from worldly harm. 

He's always been a mountain to me 

Allowed me to be me, be free, 

He's heard the moans of my strife

All through his life ,

I'm still in awe 

Though he knows me no more, 

Loving him is a joy not a chore 

The man mountain that is constant in my mind 

Remains with me still, 

Though now its harder to climb 

He'll always be my mountain,
