One of my favorite poems:
April Rain Song
Langston Hughes
Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.
His words have stuck with me for a long time. I found this poem when I was 16 and have always remembered the words. When this happens you know that something has really made an impact on your soul.
