I Don't Suppose Raindrops by Jewel Kilcher

I don't suppose raindrops
will ever replace
the sound of small feet

nor sunflowers
their tiny crowns

All the dust has gathered itself
and settled on
your heart
and there is no correct combination

no key

no question

that will deliver them
once more
to your side

for she has already decided:
no answers will
be given



I love Jewel's poetry. Her music has always been some of my favorites even from when I was young. I'm sure her music helped inspire my own poetry.

Rain

The rain glazes over the surface
making the dreary sky seem precious
for we look for the good
to make ourselves forget
we're all misunderstood
and we all get wet
trudging through the puddles
leaves dripping with heavy drops
careful not to slip on wet pebbles
muddy holes filled to the top
we don't fall
we stick it out
til the rain stops

A rainy day inspired hopeful thoughts.

In the Fields

In the fields is the grain,
in the fields it will rain,
in the fields I will stand,
and i will demand,
demand what you say?
for nothing else to come my way.




short, simple poem. This was my very first poem I ever wrote. I was 13 when I wrote it.
