Image: Raindrops to the Ground (here)
Standing in the rain
Light pattering on the face
Raindrops from the sky
Softness of touch caressing
Tranquility pervading
Eyes kept close dreaming
Unflinching in his resolve
Wetness on his face
Thoughts of childhood innocence
Raced back through his memory
For Chev's Carpe Diem #1082 - raindrops
"childhood innocence" resonates throughtout these two tanka
