      Puddle Songs - Olivia Orav

      Laments of the Rain-soaked Earth

      The ground, it sighs and weeps,

      Each droplet speaks in murmurs,

      A melody of shadows,

      Where old memories linger.

      The trees bow low with grace,

      Their roots drink deep despair,

      In puddles left behind,

      Reflections of the past.

      A wind that carries tales,

      Of loved ones lost in gray,

      Each thunder's boom a heartbeat,

      Beneath the storm's embrace.

      Yet life stirs from the gloom,

      Each beat a fragile hope,

      The earth, though torn and weary,

      Finds strength in every storm.

      With every drop that falls,

      A new chance to begin,

      In nature’s endless cycle,

      The promise of rebirth.

      Nocturne of Broken Clouds

      A canvas draped in night,

      Stars flicker in and out,

      The moon whispers softly,

      Guiding dreams on their flight.

      Clouds drift like lost thoughts,

      Shadows weave a still dance,

      Each pocket of dark holds,

      A secret, a chance glance.

      The world sleeps in solace,

      Wrapped tight in lullabies,

      While shadows stretch and twist,

      Underneath vast, calm skies.

      With a hush, the night breathes,

      Each sigh a gentle call,

      To lovers, to the weary,

      Who seek solace from all.

      And as dawn shakes the dark,

      The whispers fade away,

      Yet remnants of the night,

      In hearts forever stay.

      Colorful Echoes of a Shower

      Raindrops sparkle like gems,

      Each one a tiny sun,

      They dance on thirsty leaves,

      As colors blend and run.

      A tapestry unfolds,

      In hues of green and gray,

      The air, rich with perfume,

      From blooms that sway and play.

      In puddles, laughter waits,

      Reflecting skies above,

      Each splash a joyous note,

      In nature’s symphony of love.

      The world awakens bright,

      With every single drop,

      A palette full of life,

      Where vibrant colors pop.

      As rain begins to wane,

      A rainbow’s gentle bow,

      Reminds us of the joy,

      That follows after woe.

      The Tender Touch of Water

      Softly it kisses skin,

      A gentle, cooling breeze,

      Each wave, a lover's touch,

      Brings solace, brings sweet ease.

      Lapping at the shorelines,

      Whispers of ancient tales,

      Of journeys through the deep,

      And of winds in the sails.

      Each droplet holds a world,

      A universe inside,

      In ripples, truths unfold,

      As time's river does glide.

      With every stream that flows,

      A connection is revealed,

      Nature's soft embrace sings,

      In hearts that are concealed.

      So let the water wash,

      Your burdens far away,

      In its tender caress,

      Find peace in every wave.

      Reflections in Rain

      Puddles form on the ground,

      Mirroring the gray sky.

      Footsteps echo softly,

      As thoughts drift and sigh.

      Each drop a story told,

      Whispering to the street.

      Life slows in the moment,

      Where dreams and raindrops meet.

      Colors blend with the clouds,

      In a dance of their own.

      Nature's gentle embrace,

      In a world overgrown.

      Silence fills the spaces,

      Yet joy lingers near.

      Reflections in the rain,

      Bring the heart to cheer.

      In solitude's cradle,

      We find peace in our way.

      These moments, like raindrops,

      Guide us day by day.

      Tiny Oceans of Joy

      In the heart of a leaf,

      A drop of dew shines bright.

      It holds a tiny world,

      Filled with pure delight.

      Sunlight dances on top,

      Creating splendid hues.

      A kaleidoscope glows,

      In expansive, vibrant views.

      Children's laughter echoes,

      As they chase fleeting beams.

      In these tiny oceans,

      Life flows in joyful streams.

      Moments shared with others,

      Sparkles fill the air.

      Each friendship a
